Opened in 2024, the new aquatics complex at Justin Garza High School in Fresno, California, stands as a testament to the community's commitment to fostering youth development and excellence in sports.
Situated in the heart of the Central Valley, a region renowned for its agricultural prowess and vibrant cultural heritage, the facility serves as a hub for both educational and athletic pursuits.
The complex features two state-of-the-art swimming pools constructed using Myrtha technology, ensuring durability and performance. Designed to offer great flexibility in use, the 50-metre main pool is equipped with a movable bulkhead, allowing it to be easily configured for a variety of training sessions, competitions, and aquatic classes.

This adaptability is complemented by the inclusion of a classroom space, locker and shower facilities, and covered bleacher seating, contributing to a comprehensive and accessible environment for students and the wider community. Adjacent to the main pool, a 22-metre warm-up pool supports a wide range of aquatic activities, further enhancing the training experience.
The project was realised through the collaborative efforts of Central Unified School District, Counsilman-Hunsaker, PBK Architecture, Mark Wilson Construction, and the prime trade Contractors, reflecting a shared vision to provide cutting-edge facilities that support both competitive swimming and recreational activities. With its innovative design and community-focused approach, the Justin Garza High School Aquatics Complex sets a new standard for educational and athletic infrastructure in the region.
