Welcome
The Miramonte Swim Club (MSC) Gators provide Lamorinda youth
the opportunity to experience and enjoy recreational swimming in a
positive, competitive environment. Coaches focus on individual
stroke instruction while teaching team and life values such as
discipline, focus, self-respect, and team spirit. Developing
character is the ultimate aim and all swimmers participate in
realizing this shared goal. MSC remains the only public
recreational swim team in the 9-member Orinda Moraga Pools Association
(OMPA) that provides competitive meets throughout the
summer. Unlike other County Club teams, we don't require a
separate pool-membership fee beyond the summer swim team fee.
A list and map for the pool facilities of the clubs we swim
against is on our
Pools Page.
Please see our
About page for more information about the goals,
philosophy, operations and rules of our club. MSC is open to the public
to swimmers of all abilities, ages 4-18, competing against kids in
their own age groups. Swim Team members must attend swim
practices regularly and may attend meets. We also have a
Junior Gator Learn-to-Swim program for younger swimmers
ages 4 to 6 who are comfortable in the water but cannot yet swim a
pool lap by themselves. Visit our Coaches
page to learn more about our exceptionally talented coaching
staff.
Swimwear and Gear
Swimmers should
wear a snug-fitting swimsuit. Loose-fitting jammers or swim shirts
are not recommended. Swimmers with long hair must wear swim
caps. Please visit our
Apparel page for more information on buying your
team-approved swimsuit and Miramonte-logo swim caps. Please also
note that our coaching staff is requesting that all swimmers,
particular those age 8 and under, buy a set of training fins for
practices. Swim goggles are also recommended. You can purchase
these items from Nor-Ski in Lafayette, or Lori’s Perfect Tan
in Moraga. You can also view and order our Team Spirit Wear
(sweatsuits and caps featuring our Gator Logo) on our
Logo Gear Page. Order forms available to
download.
Workout/Practice Schedule
Please see our
Practices Page for a
listing of the daily practice times for each age
group.
Parent Work
Obligation
As MSC is a volunteer operated team, all parents of Swim Team
members are asked to assume responsibilities that support Club
operations. Parental commitment instills spirit and support,
enriching the experience of the entire family. Please see
our
Work Obligation
page for information on how to fulfill your work obligation
for the team.
Meet Sign

will be attending the meet. Information on how to sign
in/out of meets is on our
Meet Signups
