Introduction

Welcome to the Brookings Swim Club!  The Brookings Community began swimming competitively in the 1960’s and the Brookings Swim Club was established in 1973.  We have had a rich history of Brookings swimmers winning individual state championships and team championships.  We have also trained a large number of swimmers that have gone to swim collegiately.  We are excited your child has found a love for swimming and for you to join our swim family.   United States Swimming (USA Swimming) is a national governing body for competitive swimming in the country.  USA swimming is a self-governing body that selects all national teams that represent the USA in international competition including the Olympics.  Your swimmers belong to the same organization as our Olympic Champions!  Their website provides valuable information for coaches, swimmers, parents and clubs. You can visit the website at www.usaswimming.org for more information.
