Am I too old for a swim team? Is there any such thing as a swim team for old people?
Question:I'm 22 and I feel when I go to the Y I am too old for anything they have. Is there no more swim teams after you become old? Because I'm just learning how to swim now..

It's called the United States Masters Swimming, and it's for swimmers aged nineteen and up. Groups are everywhere, you just need to know where to look. Try http://www.usms.org/ to find a team near you.U.S.M.S. can be as competitive or as relaxed as you wish. Meets are held, but you don't have to go if you don't want to. Good luck!
P.S. My swim coach is about your age and he competes with Masters (he coaches for them too). I've heard nothing but good things about it from him.

It doesn't matter how old u r as long as u a good swimmer.Does lifeguarding put you/keep you in shape and give you a hot body?
No, you're not. Look for a Masters Swim Club in your area. They are for older people that would like to either get in shape, or just to get some exercise, or training for triathlons. I myself, will probably join one of these soon as I was a competitive swimmer for 12 years when I was a kid. I kind of miss the atmosphere. Great exercise too!

Yes, there is Masters Swimming programs for ages 19 and up-its great exercise and typically very social. Take some lessons to learn to swim first and then join the team.What is the world record for high dive?
22 is NOT too old! There are masters swim programs in many facilities. There are 90 years olds that swim, so the masters start at 19 y.o. and go to however old you want to be!WHere can I get a decent UNDERWATER camera?
MountainM said what I was going to say.Masters swimming is for ages 18-99.not for old people.there are some really young swimmers and masters is for fun.but later on they have swim meets if you want to participate and try for a time..How have swimming suits helped break olympic records?
yea well 22 doesnt sound too old, but if there arent any swim teams or classes for your age group, you might have to join an older or younger one. ive heard of masters swim team... but i dont know how old you have to be for that. go to your swim place and ask about a class or team for your age group. once your signed up, go out and buy a speedo brief, some goggles, maybe a cap and your good to go.too clear up that first question no one is ever too old to start swimming!!! I go to morning dip (not during swim season..) and there is an elderly lady there that has to be at least..70 if not more..and she swims..as for your other question depends what area you live it..look it up..google it..etc..
