The Downtown Aquatics Corporation is a not-for-profit, volunteer-run organization, incorporated in the year 2000 to coordinate the activities of its three component clubs, the Downtown Swim Club (est. 1987), Triggerfish Waterpolo (est. 2001) and Breathless Sychronized Swimming (est. 2007). Through these Clubs, the DAC strives to promote aquatic sports in Toronto in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities, and support activities of mutual interest including, but not limited to, financial management, pool rental, club promotion, social activities and grant applications.

The Downtown Swim Club is a Toronto Masters swim club registered with Masters Swimming Ontario and International Gay and Lesbian Aquatics (IGLA). Through IGLA, DSC is associated with the Federation of Gay Games (FGG).  DSC is also a member of GLISA, the sanctioning body for the Outgames.

The DSC welcomes all levels of swimmers who have in common not how fast they are, but how hard they work (or how much fun they have!) while swimming.

Our Mission

• To maximize the accessibility of DSC activities - in terms of pool location, practice times, number of practices and affordability.
• To provide a balanced program, appealing equally to men and women, recreational, fitness and competitive swimmers, and providing both exercise and social activities.
• To provide an environment fostering improved competitive skills for those interested in masters swim meets.
• To provide a positive gay and lesbian environment.
