Club Dues and Association

The swim club is associated with United States Masters Swimming (USMS). This means you must join Masters annually ($30/year) to swim with the club. In return, you are covered by the group insurance policy. The insurance includes accident and liability coverage during all sanctioned events and organized workouts that are supervised by a USMS member or coach. You will also receive SWIM magazine bimonthly, which contains articles on nutrition, stroke tips, competetions, and other Masters swimmers. You are welcome to try a few workouts before making the commitment to join; however, the club must pay for coaches and pool rent, so all club members must pay monthly dues. Dues are $20/month for Caltech students and $30/month for everyone else. Caltech students willing to make a long-term commitment are rewarded with a lower rate of $45/quarter.
