YMCA of Greater Des Moines Masters
At DSMY Masters we strive to provide a welcoming, fun and safe place to enjoy the water and have a great swim training program experience. We welcome swimmers 18 years and older of every ability who are looking for the great coaching, terrific pools and friendly encouraging lane mates. (The word "Masters" does not describe your ability or skill level; simply your age i.e. "adult" swim team.) Our practices will vary throughout the week and will focus on a variety of training aspects such as speed, endurance, technique and most importantly having fun. All practices are led by a certified DSMY coach who will guide the team by providing tips and feedback to help you improve your swimming ability.
