Getting Started

New Swimmers Welcome! Simply bring a swimming suit, goggles and show up to practice. You can take QUAC for a test-swim for one month at no cost and without a USMS membership. Tell the desk and the deck coach that you are new and trying out QUAC for the first time, and they will take it from there.

Water Polo

Learn how to make a skip shot! We have a water polo team! Like swimming, you don’t even have to know how to play.  All you need is a desire to come and participate.  So if you're a returning player or if it is just something you’ve always wanted to try, come join us. To find out more about QUAC's Water Polo team here.
