Mission Statement

Killarney Synchro Swim Club provides for the development of team and individual synchronized swimming skills in a positive and supportive environment promoting teamwork, sportsmanship, and camaraderie.

The Club

Killarney Synchro was established in 1982 with its home base pool being Killarney pool in Calgary. Since 1982 we have branched out to all areas of the city and currently practice out of both the SAIT campus pool and Mount Royal College pool. Our program offerings include a beginner stream (Recreational), a Competitive stream (tiers 1 through 5) and a Masters Team (age 18 and up).

Our club is a non-profit organization that is administered by a parent executive in conjunction with a head coach. Our club does minimal fund raising, however it is mandatory for each swimmer to have parent work one casino every 12 - 18 months. Optional fund raising opportunities are offered throughout the year to afford the girls a chance to raise funds that can be credited to their own account. We depend on parent volunteers to help us host swim meets as they are designated to us.Our current membership is 56 girls ranging in age from 8-17 years. We have 8 qualified coaches on staff each with Level 2 or 3 NCCP certification and many have national "A" level swimming experience. Our swim year runs from September to the end of May.
