We offer quality, organized, competitive workouts, with a professional coach, to every ability level of athlete. Our positive training environment provides our large fitness community opportunities that help everybody reach their own personal goals. We also sponsor many organized social events for our participants throughout the year.

"YA GOTTA WANNA"
For over 38 years, the UCSD Masters Swimming Program, under the watchful eyes of Masters Sports Director and Head Coach, Ron ‘Sickie’ Marcikic, has offered quality swim workouts to students, staff, faculty and the surrounding community.

Fitness truly is a way of life for our swimmers.
Participants need to be able to swim at least 200 yards of freestyle without stopping, and at least one other competitive stroke, in order to fit into one of the workout lanes with other swimmers.
