Outdoor 50m Pool

MUSAC remains committed to providing equitable pool space to members. To limit member disruption, MUSAC has reduced School Swimming Carnival bookings for 2023 to increase available swimming space for members.

Although the Outdoor 50m Pool will be unavailable for scheduled carnival times, multiple swimming lanes will be made available for member use in the Indoor 25m Pool.

Likewise, the Outdoor 50m Pool will remain available for member and patron usage in the lead up to and conclusion of each carnival time.

We thank members for their understanding and look forward to sharing increased pool availability this School Swimming Carnival season.
