The Original Sarasota Masters Swim Team

The Original Sarasota Masters Swim Team has been in continual existence since 1973. Originally chartered as Suncoast Masters Swimming, we renamed our team Swim Florida Masters a few decades later to better reflect our growth as members from Ft. Myers and Naples joined our team.

After over 33 years we are now known as The Original Sarasota Masters Swim Team to better promote our proud heritage as one of the original Masters swim teams in the country. Our team is also presently a member of  FACT (The Florida Aquatic Combined Team) which gives us the privilege of joining with other FACT teams in representing Florida at Regional and National events as a team to be reckoned with when we compete against other combined state and multi-state teams. It gives every member a chance to be a part of a National relay team and a potential National Championship team!

We welcome all levels of swimmers, from triathletes, beginner recreational and fitness, to the competitive, 18 years old and up! College and High School swimmers; stay fit during school breaks!

Membership is $55 per year, which includes the USMS, Team and FACT fees. Membership benefits include supplemental insurance, USMS Swimmer magazine, LMSC and Team Newsletters.

We are pleased to partner with the newest competitive swim club in Sarasota, the Sarasota Tsunami Swim Team!  Headed by one of the finest swim coaches in the country, Ira Klein, the Sarasota Tsunami offers training and practice groups for swimmers of all ages and ability levels.
