Whether you’re a former competitive swimmer itching to get back on the blocks or an adult looking to sharpen your strokes, build endurance, and stay fit, Breakers Masters has a lane for you! With coach-led workouts and supportive teammates by your side, you’ll push your limits, improve your skills, and (re)discover the joy of swimming. Train just for yourself—or step it up and represent the Ridgewood Y at masters swim meets during the competitive season.

Season runs September–March, with opportunities for drop-in sessions during the off-season. Practices consist of two coach-led sessions per week, along with additional workouts to be completed on your own if desired.

Please note: non-members will only have access to the pool during Masters practices. Additional pool access may be obtained by joining the Ridgewood Y as a member.

Participants must be 18 years of age or older and not enrolled in a high school. Tryouts are not required; however swimming proficiency is necessary and is defined by the following minimum criteria:

• able to swim 25 yards (1 length) of the pool without stopping or needing assistance
• able to swim freestyle and backstroke
