The Lake Oswego Swim Club
is a USA Swimming, year round competitive swim team.
providing quality instruction for swimmers, from novice to

ranked.
The Lake Oswego Swim Club
(LOSC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to the vision of our
parent organization, USA Swimming, which is “to inspire and
enable our members to achieve excellence in the sport of swimming
and in life.”
LOSC offers quality instruction for swimmers, from novice to
nationally ranked, in a positive and challenging environment. LOSC
was established in 1977 and has developed into one of the premiere
swim clubs in the Pacific Northwest. LOSC currently holds 6
National Age Group records, 65 Oregon Swimming records,
and numerous Top 10 National rankings.
The benefits of swimming with LOSC make every member a
winner:
- We have a highly trained,
caring coaching staff.
- We have a dedicated,
involved parent base whose volunteer efforts help create the
positive environment that exists at LOSC.
- By participating in the
swim team program, our swimmers are developing skills in time
management, self-discipline, and sportsmanship, as well as forming
solid friendships.
- Our swimmers attend more
than 14 different public and private schools from all over the
Portland metro area, from kindergarten to high school. Instead of
school rivalries, our swimmers are building friendships that
encourage an inclusive mindset toward others.
- We provide opportunities
for personal and social growth through practice, swim meets and
team functions.
- While our children are
becoming healthy and physically fit, they are challenging their own
limits and are engaging in competition that is both fierce and
friendly. They are learning that hard work pays off, and how to be
gracious winners, as well as how to handle defeat - skills that
will help them throughout their lives.
We are
currently 200+ swimmers
strong.
