Pool
The main pool is 25 yards in length and has 6 lanes and a diving area.  There is also a baby pool
for our little ones.

The pool is open from April through October, 7 days per week.  The pool hours vary by season
(see table below for dates & times).
Swim Lessons
American Red Cross "Learn-to-Swim" Lessons now offered at MVP for both
members and non-swimmers and swimmers, children and adults, who would like to improve their
strokes. The Learn to Swim Program is geared for those NOT on swim team. Beginning swimmers
will focus on breath control, floating, water entry and water exit. As swimmers continue to improve
they will learn side breathing, freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke.


  • Four 20 minute private lessons are $80 per week (non members $100)
  • Four semi private lessons are $60 per week (non members $75)


Lessons are available May through September and usually scheduled on Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Thursday. (If there is a Wednesday night swim meet, lessons may be scheduled
on Friday.)

To sign up for lessons, use the Learn to Swim Lesson sign-up binder at the pool office. Each
instructor has sheets with their availability listed. Patrons may sign up for a time slot. Please pay for
lessons at the time of sign up. Lifeguards and Swim Instructors can accept checks.

Please feel to talk with Instructors, or Head Lifeguard, Carol Kerr, at the pool. Carol can be

Swim Team
The "MVP Marlins", our Swim Team, provides excellence, pride, commitment and fun to the
members and their families.   

For an additional fee, Moraga Valley Pool (MVP) has a recreational swim team for
children, ages 3 1/2 to 18. Mini Marlins is a special pre-swim team program
consisting of weekday practices for 3 1/2 to 6 years old.  The swim team is for
ages up to 18 years old.

Pre-season workouts begin in late April and the season ends in mid-August with
the OMPA meet (all Orinda & Moraga pools). Our team, the Marlins, focuses on learning, fun and
friendly competition. Any swimmer, regardless of ability, is encouraged to participate. There are
swim team social events and spirit activities throughout the season that provide swimmers and
their families an opportunity to meet other pool members and have fun during the summer. We have
an incredible coaching staff made up of 5 core coaches and 14 junior coaches.
