The Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre (TPASC) will provide users with the best possible facilities to enjoy a wide range of aquatic events. From recreational swimming to water polo, to high performance swimming and diving, the Aquatic Centre at TPASC will benefit the entire community.
Built to international standards for competition, both the competition and training pools measure approximately 52.03m x 25m and feature 10 competition lanes of 2.5m each. The volume of water for each pool is approximately 3,880,000 litres.
The Training Pool has two moveable floor sections that will adjust the depth up to level with the deck, allowing for adaptive programming. Modesty blinds are in place to cover all windows during Women’s Only or special group training in this pool. AODA accommodations include 2 PAL lifts and a portable ramp for entry/exit from the pool.
The Competition Pool features permanent gallery seating for 2277 people plus 24 mobility aided seats. A curtain can separate the Competition Pool from Dive Tank activities and plug-ins allow for an underwater sound system.
One of the highlights of TPASC is the Dive Tank, which measures five metres in depth and can accommodate eight lanes of pool for practice swimming. Permanent dive towers were designed for 10-metre, seven-metre, five-metre and three-metre platform diving. Springboard diving boards are also available for one-metre and three-metre diving. On-deck showers and adjacent Diving Dryland Training Centre complete with trampolines, dive pit, harness rig and cushioned flooring complete this world-class facility.
TPASC members will be provided with open lane swimming throughout all hours of operation.
