FAST

Ocala, Florida, USA

The Circle Square Foundation purchased the 2021 Omaha Trials warm-up pool for a new aquatic centre in Ocala, for the Florida Aquatics Swimming and Training (FAST) club team. FAST will provide a wide variety of programs including swim lessons, drowning prevention, aquatic therapy and fitness, and life-saving water training for lifeguards and fire rescue personnel.

The new facility includes an 8 lane 50-meter pool with 14, 25-yard lanes for optimal training. During the opening ceremony, the Trustee of Circle Square Foundation spoke about a “premier facility”, while the FAST coach raised the bar for the next future: “I really believe FAST Ocala will be one of the five best swimming facilities in the country”.
