Freshwater Amateur Swim Club

Freshwater Amateur Swim Club (FASC) is a long-established sports club located at Freshwater Beach Rock Pool on Sydney's stunning Northern Beaches. Since 1946, FASC has been organising weekly swim meets that take place every Saturday afternoon from October until March, providing a fantastic opportunity for swimmers of all levels to come together and compete.

Races at FASC are held in all four swim strokes, ranging from 15 metres for beginners to 1500 metres for more experienced swimmers. The club embraces the social aspect of swimming, with members enjoying the opportunity to spend time at the pool, basking in the sunshine (or even the rain! ) and indulging in a weekly sausage sizzle. It's an incredible way to have fun, connect with others, and make new friends within your local community.
