Event Description
Beach Swim Club is Long Beach's oldest competitive swim team, and the only team operated as a non-profit 501(c)3 organization. Swimmers train at the Belmont Pool year around. Swimmers age 4 and up are welcome to join. Swimmers must know the 2 basic strokes (freestyle, back) and must be able to swim 25 yards without stopping.
Long Beach Swim Club is not a high yardage club. It is a club that focuses on individual talents and creates a specialty program that causes dramatic athletic improvements. Beach uses dryland as a means of increasing strength-to-weight ratio, developing core strength, and preventing injuries. This method of crosstraining produces a better athlete as a whole. It also provides great variety in daily workouts. Drill work and fast swimming are the backbone of the water time.
