New Training Facility Unveiled Blue Streak Aquatic, Inc., (BSA) the parent organization that supports Berkeley Aquatic's competitive swim team, plans to build a new training facility with a 50-meter pool in New Jersey . BSA has purchased the United States Olympic Trials swimming pool which was delivered on August 15, 2004. We have been experiencing tremendous growth over the past few years and are forced to turn away many students each year. A new facility with a 50-meter training pool will allow us to take our program to the next level of training excellence and provide more children with the opportunity to develop and reach their full potential both in and out of the pool. For the past thirty years, our program has provided thousands of student athletes with the ability to expand their education and maintain health and fitness throughout their lives. Blue Streak Aquatic, Inc. supports over 324 swimmers and 234 families representing 7 local communities. Our club attracts families throughout New Jersey through swim club participation and meets. Additionally, our athletes represent BAC in numerous regional, national and international competitions and subsequent media coverage of their successes continues to multiply awareness of Berkeley Aquatic Club and the new training facility.
