Philadelphia Fins Aquatics Club
Our members range from swimmers who have never competed, to first time competitors, to national record holders. We welcome swimmers of all ages, skill levels, genders and orientations. The team provides challenging, well-organized, coached work-outs. Some members focus on local, regional, national or international swimming competitions and/or triathlons. Others swim to keep fit. The Philadelphia Fins Aquatics Club was founded in 1988 for LGBT swimmers in the Philadelphia area. We are a member of the United States Masters Swimming (USMS) and the International Gay and Lesbian Aquatics (IGLA). Since 1988, Fins has grown to be the largest masters swim team located in Center City Philadelphia.
