The University of Victoria swimming pool that supported the training of nine Olympians and Paralympians — including Ryan Cochrane and Stephanie Dixon, two of Canada’s most decorated swimmers — will close this fall.
The pool, which is expected to close by Sept. 15, is primarily used by varsity teams, Pacific Coast Swimming club and some student and alumni clubs, with little use by students, faculty and staff, according to UVic. The Vikes varsity swim program and Pacific Coast Swimming have plans to move to municipal pools in the region, and UVic said it will assist student aquatic clubs to relocate their activities, where possible.
