The Evergreen State College Pool, located in west Olympia, WA is a unique 25 yard by 25 meter configuration. It allows for competition, but also for lessons, water polo, underwater hockey, SCUBA, springboard diving, and open swim.
The facility has:
2 HUGE recently remodeled locker rooms, both with elevator access.
Seating for several hundred spectators
BRAND NEW 1m springboard
3 offices
4 on deck dressing rooms
2 on deck showers
An elevated meet operations platform
An 8 lane scoreboard
Colorado 6 and 7 Meet Consoles
25m and 25 yard lane lines
Because of the unique 25y x 25m configuration, the pool can transition from a competition pool to a multi-use pool quickly, in minutes!
A world-class competition pool
Two buffer lanes, and a warm-up cool down lane as well!
Plus, the diving well, right next to the competition pool can be used for warm-up and cool down (or other activities at the same time as the meet).
The outside two lanes are extra wide, making it a fast pool, with minimal wake from the side, even for the outside lane swimmers.
A flexible practice facility
Eleven lanes, or one.
Or any number in between!
Lessons, water aerobics, open swim, kayaking, swim team practice, and so much more!
Truly a pool for EVERYONE in the community!

A Water Polo pool, and so much more!
The 25m configuration allows for the pool to be used by multiple users with multiple depth needs at the same time.
The shallow area away from the starting blocks can be used for lessons and physical therapy, while the middle lanes are used for swim practices and open swim, and the deep water can be used for water polo, kayaking, search and rescue, SCUBA diving, or underwater hockey!
The 10 yard by 15 yard, 12 foot deep dive well has a brand new 16' Duraflex diving board, two semi-enclosed ADA showers, and four dressing rooms.
The diving well has nearly as many uses as the main pool, including:
Competitive springboard diving club
SCUBA diving practice
In-water deep water skill building
Underwater rescue practice
Water polo practice
Otter Ball
Synchronized swimming
Deep water aerobics
Advanced swim lessons
High school dive team
And so much more!
