    Hello Georgian Bay Community Members, For the 2020-2021 swim season the Collingwood Clippers Swim Club is reaching out to local businesses and organizations to gain sponsorships, that will ensure our ability to continue providing our local youth with the opportunity to pursue competitive and recreational swimming excellence during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the beginning of the pandemic, our Club has encountered setbacks, but we are excited to say that we are in the process of bouncing back and we are looking for support from our community to continue on stronger than ever. The Collingwood Clippers Swim Club (formerly Collingwood Y Clippers) have been teaching and coaching competitive swimming to the youth of Collingwood, Wasaga Beach, Blue Mountain and surrounding areas since 1985. The Club started as an entry level developmental swim program and has subsequently evolved into a strong, competitive Swim Club. In recent years, CCSC has continued to produce competitive swimmers that excel at the Regional, Provincial, National and International levels of competition, winning medals and placing within the top 8 at competitions. We have been extremely effective in developing our swimmers and breaking club records. Over the past 3 season our swimmers have broken 28 female short course club records, 43 male short course club records, 33 female long course club records and 40 male long course club records for a grand total of 144 club records!
