As a Masters Swimmer myself, I too had questions about joining Masters... From the three months that I have been in Masters, I've gotten the opportunity to meet some great people. Unlike a high school swim team (which I was in) there aren't any qualifiactions or specifications. Masters Swimming is open to any swimmer of any level, whether you compete or just swim to stay in shape. In other words, Join now! Life as you know it will have a major improvement.

Well as someone who just jumped back into the pool after 15 years, just go do it! You'll find that there are several levels of people that workout. Some compete, some don't. Some do fly, some don't (like me :D). So at the expense of sounding cliche...just do it! Later. Naunga

By all means go and join in!!! You don't have to do all of the strokes or even the entire workout. Our coach frequently changes the set for people who can't or don't want to do fly or back or whatever. Just this morning I had a little tweak in my shoulder and opted out of the fly and back portion of the workout. What is so nice about Masters is that it is for everyone! Enjoy:)
