The smell of chlorine is in the air, the sound of splashing is getting closer, and we can almost feel the excitement building! Crest Swimming is thrilled to officially welcome all our incredible swimmers and their families back for what promises to be another exhilarating competitive swim season, kicking off on September 22, 2025! We hope you all had a fantastic summer, filled with fun, relaxation, and perhaps a little bit of swimming! But before we dive headfirst into new goals and challenges, let us take a moment to celebrate...

But you can always find out what we are up to, or follow us here, as we splash into Spring 2025 swimming.

With hearts full to the brim with gratitude, we wish our beloved coaches, Fred, AJ, and Che, a happy coach appreciation day. Thank you sincerely for all of the care, wisdom, and skill you bring to our swimmers. Thank you for picking up our swimmers and challenging them to be the best versions of themselves; thank you for noticing and taking time for sidebar conversations when a swimmer is having a hard day; and thank you for your unfailing commitment to the entire Crest team and swimming community. Coming off...

We are thrilled to kick off the 2024-25 swim season at Crest Swimming and welcome back all of our returning swimmers and families! We are also excited to extend a warm welcome to our many new swimmers joining the Crest family. Last season was a tremendous success for our swimmers, sweeping the three Ontario Championship Small Team banners in winter and culminating in outstanding results at the Ontario Open Water Championships and the Speedo Canadian Swimming Championships. Our athletes' dedication, hard work, and competitive spirit shone brightly, and we are...

With day five upon us of the 2024 Canadian Olympic and Paralympic Trials, Crest Swimming has had a remarkably successful meet. Seven swimmers (13% of the club!) have proudly represented Crest and experienced fantastic performances and noteworthy surprises. On the men's side, Crest is currently ranked 17th, with a very busy weekend ahead. Five swimmers will be racing a combined eight events during these final three days of competition. Ella H, Ben L, and Jack L are all swimming the 200m Fly, with Ben in medal contention, seeded second in...

What an amazing couple of weeks it has been for CREST athletes! Two weeks ago our swimmers got the ball rolling, seeing early success in the pool at both Festival and OYJ Championships. CREST continued its run of provincial small team victories earning banners as Small Team Champions at both competitions. Numerous PBs were achieved at both meets and a High Point Award was presented to one of our very own! CREST was well represented this past weekend at the Etobicoke Olympium by the 25 athletes who all raced their...

CREST is back for 2023-24 and excited to welcome our swimmers and new teammates back to the pool to build on last season's successes. Follow us throughout the season on Instagram (@crestswimclub), and contact the registrar if you'd like to learn more about joining the club!

After the pandemic-related hiatus, we are more than thrilled to have launched our new and improved pre-competitive program. Lots of enthusiasm, hard work, and smiling faces in the pool three nights/week. Looking forward to watching these keen swimmers develop their skills and love of the water, and build towards the competitive roster!

After only a short layoff following the extended (and exciting!) 2021-22 season, CREST swimmers are back in the water in full force. We are thrilled to see many of last seasons’ graduates populating varsity teams across the country, and to welcome a fantastic group of new recruits to our roster! A great start to the season at the RHAC Fall Classic, with tons of personal bests, lots of medals and ribbons, and many CRESTparents chipping in on deck in officiating roles.

To wrap up the 2021-22 season, CREST cheered on our swimmers Ben Loewen and Charlie Skalenda, who were selected to represent Canada at the Jr Pan Pac Swimming Championships in Hawaii. Swimming outdoors through blinding sun and rain delays, while competing against top juniors from the US, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Samoa, Fiji, and Singapore, they delivered outstanding performances, doing our club and the Canadian squad proud. Congratulations for the hard work and determination over a long season, and thanks to our coaches who prepared them to excel on the...
