University at Buffalo, Alumni Arena
Buffalo Aquatics practices at UB six (6) days per week.
The University at Buffalo’s Natatorium is home to both the men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams and is comparable to any facility in the East and includes movable bulkheads, four springboards, and four diving platforms, accommodations for the handicapped and gallery seating for 1,000 spectators.
The pool which is 50 meters long and 25 yards wide holds 700,000 gallons of water. From April through October, the pool is set up in long course format. With the ability to have blocks on both ends, the eight-lane pool is able to hold any long course competition. During the winter months, the pool is converted to short course. With a bulkhead in the middle, the pool can hold competitions on both ends simultaneously. This is further enhanced with the technology of Colorado Timing Systems. With two eight-lane scoreboards and the accuracy of automatic timing, this system helps enhance the greatness of the facility. The Natatorium is located on the first floor, room 86.
