West Austin Athletic Club

West Austin Athletic Club is the place to be. The swimming pools, tennis courts, and playground provide hours of fun for kids and adults to relax and beat the summer heat. Adults stay in shape by working out with the aerobic and weight equipment. The Club sponsors many programs for adults and children with a staff that is dedicated to providing a safe, friendly environment in which adults and children feel welcome.

Adult Swimming & Masters

Masters coaches can help improve your swimming and help you stay in shape!

West Austin Athletic Club offers many opportunities for pool time for adults to swim laps, improve stroke technique, stay in shape, swim in a master's program, cross train with another sport, rehabilitate after surgery or injury, or train to swim competitively in swim meets or triathlons.

Adult WAAC members can swim laps whenever the club is open. Additionally, we have a Masters/Tri-athlete Class Monday-Friday 5:45-7:15 am, Monday-Friday 7:00-8:15 am and M-Th noon-1pm. Coaches provide a customized swim workout and stroke instruction at the early morning and noon workout times. Several work outs are written on the white board which can be utilized by swimmers during the day and workouts are provided in drawers in the breezeway. Individual WAAC memberships are also available whereby swimmers can also have access to WAAC's fitness room and other facilities. WAAC also has a Six Month Membership from November-April and a Lap Swim Card for those who can swim during the non-peak times of 10am-3 pm. Class punch cards are available to members and non-members. Members receive weekly free classes.

The adults who swim at WAAC consist of all abilities from new swimmers and those who swim primarily for exercise to ex-college swimmers and swimmers actively competing.

Some of our adults choose to compete in master swim meets. Our team is West Austin Aquatics and we are a registered United States Masters Swimming team. We have adults who participate in open-water swims, short-course/long-course meets, and triathlons.

The pools are maintained during the winter at 80-82 degrees F. WAAC offers both SC and LC pools at one site. The facilities include an 8 lane 25-yard pool, a 4 lane 50 meter pool and an additional 6, 25-yard lanes in WAAC's island pool. The Masters/Triathlete program is directed by Andy Williams.
