Mansfield Swimming Club - Masters
Mansfield Masters Swimming is a welcoming and inclusive group for adults aged 18 years and over who enjoy swimming for fitness, skill development, competition, or simply the social connection that comes from being part of a supportive squad.
Our members come from a wide range of backgrounds and abilities — from swimmers returning to the pool after many years, to those looking to improve technique and fitness, through to experienced swimmers who enjoy racing in pool and open water events.
There is no single pathway in Masters swimming. Some members train purely for fitness and enjoyment, while others take part in competitions across Victoria and beyond. Your level of involvement is entirely up to you.

Mansfield Masters aims to provide:
Training Location
Training takes place at the Mansfield Swimming Pool, using the outdoor 33-metre pool.
