Swim with us in 2021.
The MSWA Albany Swim has become an iconic, much anticipated, annual community event for the region.
Join swimmers of all ages, for an eight-hour relay challenge.
All funds, raised by the event, stay in Albany and the Great Southern region to support the hundreds of people living with neurological conditions.
The MSWA Albany Swim is an amateur swimming event, that takes place at Albany Leisure and Aquatic Centre; where teams compete to swim the longest distance in a set 8-hour period.
Teams of 10 challenge themselves in the swim - they must have one swimmer in the water at all times for the duration of the event. There are no rules on how the competitors swim the event (freestyle, backstroke, or doggy paddle!) and 2021 will see an adjustment to the rules, that allows all swimmers to utilise swimming aids during the event.
For example, one competitor may choose to swim 10 continuous laps before passing to the next person; whilst another team may rotate their swimmers every two or four laps. As long as each person in the team swims a minimum of six laps or equivalent, the team score is considered valid.
If you have a specific question about the event, you can check out our FAQs, or get in touch.
