Registration for Winter 26/27 Season

starts on Monday, October 26!

The Mercersburg Area Swim Club (MASC) is a competitive swim club in Mercersburg, Pennsylvania.

Practices are held at the James Buchanan High School pool, Monday-Thursday from 5:30-7 pm.

We provide the opportunity for swimmers ages 5-18 to compete and participate in an environment that is both supportive and fun. MASC gives young swimmers the chance to develop the necessary fundamentals for competitive swimming, while perfecting the skills of older, more experienced swimmers.

We are affiliated with the Central Penn Aquatic League (CPAL) in the winter season and with the Mid-Atlantic Summer Swim League (MASSL) in the summer season. These leagues offer dual meets and championships for members to build competitive experience.

Practice Schedule

During practices, swimmers are arranged by age group and coached / trained accordingly. They learn the technical and fundamental aspects of the key strokes: Freestyle, Backstroke, Butterfly, and Breaststroke.

Practices are held:

Monday - Thursday

5:30 - 7:00 PM

at the

James Buchanan High School (JBHS) Swimming Pool

Families can choose which evenings to attend practice - swimmers are encouraged to attend 2 or more practices a week to improve their swimming abilities. Each practice will have a different focus, so the more practices attended, the more experience the swimmer obtains in all the strokes!

Swimmers should have a one-piece swimsuit and goggles. Swim caps are preferred for female swimmers and optional for male swimmers. Team-branded suits, caps, and other gear are not required, but are available for purchase using the "Team Suits & Spirit Wear" link at the top of this page.

When facing the front of the school, door for swim practice and meet entrance is located on the right side of the building (near the solar panels). Ample parking is usually available, but if full, there are lots in the front and rear of the building as well.
