The
Etobicoke Swim Club has a long and rich history of service
to the Etobicoke community. Since 1954 we have been training
children and young adults in the sport of competitive swimming
with truly outstanding results.
The Etobicoke Swim Club has produced many National, International
and Olympic swimmers and has been Provincial and National
Champion many times over. Today we have over 230 swimmers
competing for Etobicoke, from the novice level all the way
to National Team members. Our club motto is "Committed
to Excellence" and our swimmers, coaches and parents
work hard on a daily basis to continue this tradition of excellence.
We are the current Ontario Senior Champions and
Age Group National Champions and are one of Swimming Canada's
six high performance clubs. We are extremely proud of our
swimmers and their successes; however, as parents, we are
equally proud of the outstanding citizens that our children
have become for the community.
Over the years a very special relationship has developed between
our organization, the City of Etobicoke, and the Etobicoke
Olympium. We feel that our young athletes are tremendous ambassadors
for Etobicoke as they travel around the Toronto area, the
province of Ontario, the rest of Canada and even the world,
to take part in swim meets. We also host thousands of swimmers
and their families each year as they take part in competitions
that are held at the Etobicoke Olympium.
