GPAC’s home pools are located at Olympic Swim & Health Club in Penn Hills, PA.  The team trains indoors in a 25 yard pool (short course) as well as outside in an Olympic sized 50 meter pool (long course).  Throughout the year, there are two main swimming seasons:

  • Spring/Summer: Long Course Developmental Swimming and Dryland Training. This season runs from April to August.

  • The team is run by Head Coach Stephen Kustra.  Stephen is a recent graduate of the University of Connecticut where he swam for four years.  Coach Steve focuses on the fundamentals of swimming and building a strong foundation while learning good sportsmanship and teamwork.   His also focuses on teaching the importance of a life sport, making friendships, and enjoying the benefits of hard-work and dedication.
