Chronicle
As we take a closer look in our past, we find that this magnificent olympic sized 50m pool is a result of the zeal and enthusiaism of the then IIT Kanpur students, who voluntarily offered their services that brought the pool in the present shape.
The swimming pool was inaugrated in March 1975, which was the time when there were a very few number of pools of olympic standards in the country.
The swimming pool has witnessed a National Aquatics Meet and two All India Inter University Aquatics Meet in the past. It has also been awarded for its best purification system and maitenance. Till now, 6 Inter IIT Aquatics Meet have been organised here.
At present, the swimming pool is well equipped with all kinds of training facilities along with a well trained staff of life guards and an experienced coach.
