Signature Programs
Classes and swim team practices are all hosted at the
Don Fisher Clubhouse, where we have a beautiful competition-sized
swimming pool. The Swim Academy is open to all Club members, no matter which Clubhouse they primarily attend.
Water Smart
The 30-minute Water Smart class teaches youth who have limited swimming experience how to be safe around any body of water.
Learn-to-Swim
Our team of professional swim instructors teach six-week classes to help youth ages to six to 18 learn to swim. The program focuses on helping kids and teens progressively build confidence in the water. As with all things in the aquatics program, BGCSF is 100% focused on safety first as youth learn to swim.
BGCSF Aquatics Club
Our competitive swim team trains year-round and participates in swim meets across the Bay Area, exposing swimmers to healthy competition and great exercise. The BGCSF Aquatics Club has also helped youth receive scholarships and get accepted to high school and college.
Recreational Swim
Recreational swim is an opportunity for youth to have fun and practice new skills in the pool, while being supervised by Red Cross-certified lifeguards.

"The Swim Academy has given my granddaughter more confidence. I see her interacting with other swimmers, and she has brought that outside of the Club into her everyday life.”
