BERKELEY - Last week at the corner of Bancroft Way and Fulton Street, UC Berkeley broke ground on a state-of-the-art facility that will benefit both Cal's world-class aquatics programs as well as the entire campus.
The California Aquatic Center will be a 52-meter training pool with a bulkhead & diving tower, locker rooms and team room. It will serve as a practice facility for Cal's men's and women's swimming teams as well as its men's and women's water polo teams. By moving the training sessions to the new center, Rec Sports will be able to offer more pool time to the general campus at Spieker Aquatics Complex.
