Aquatic Club of Elkhorn (ACE) is a USA Swimming registered swim team with athletes from all over the greater Omaha, Nebraska area and its surrounding communities. Our team is comprised of swimmers as young as seven years of age to collegiate athletes. 

Our athletes train at two locations in the Omaha area: Common Ground Recreation and Aquatic Center (1701 Veterans Drive, Elkhorn, NE) and at the Eppley Recreation Center on the Omaha Home for Boys campus, located north of the Happy Hollow area in Omaha, NE. 

Youth who join our team have satisfactorily completed the highest level of swimming lessons available, are comfortable in deep water, and want to improve their swimming skills specifically for racing in the pool. Our athletes train year round to refine the performance of all strokes (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly), to build endurance for racing, and to learn the necessary techniques for competition. 

Our Mission

Developing Achievement, Character and Excellence for life through swimming.
