It has been a busy weekend at Commonwealth Pool with over 720 swimmers competing in this year's 2022 Swim BC Provincial Championships. Our team of Pacific Coast Swimming qualifiers have been shining with some fantastic performances so far this weekend. On Friday, Conor Poulin qualified for his first Canadian Westerns cut in 400m freestyle. Elizabeth Saska (first provincial compeition) came third in both the 100m freestyle & 50m backstroke. 

Ron Jacks will be moving from his daily role as Pacific Coast Swimming’s Director of Swimming to a new Coach Emeritus/Mentoring position.

What better way to spend the weekend than at a swim meet with 84 other team mates?

85 of our Pacific Coast Swimming swimmers spent the weekend racing at Duncan's 2022 Spring Invitational swim meet. From first time racers to provincial qualifiers, we had an action-packed weekend of cheering & racing. Congratulations to the newly qualified regional, divisional, and provincial qualifiers from this weekend! Thank you to the Duncan Stingrays for hosting the competition & to all officials, volunteers and coordinators for making the meet run smoothly.
