One of the finest on-campus swimming and diving facilities in the nation, the Mizzou Aquatic Center serves as the home of Missouri's men's and women's swimming and diving programs and has hosted some of the nation's top meets.
Opened in 2005, the Mizzou Aquatic Center features a 50-meter competitive pool with a moveable hydraulic floor. The pool's water is kept between 78 and 80 degrees at all times with a maximum depth of eight feet, six inches.
In addition to the competitive pool is the 25-yard diving well, stocked with top-of-the-the-line amenities. Kept at a temperature between 84 and 86 degrees, the diving well features two one-meter springboards, two three-meter springboards and one, three, seven-and-a-half and ten-meter platforms. Under the three-meter springboard and seven-and-a-half and ten-meter platforms is positioned a Sparger bubble system. Divers exit the water via a set of stairs that are accessed by ladders and have the option of showering in a set of warm showers behind the diving towers. On top of that, the diving well houses its own separate hot tub.
Both the 50-meter pool and diving well have Ultaviolet (UV) disinfection systems - in concert with proper air handling and pool chemistry, the UV systems provide better air and water quality to the Mizzou Aquatic Center.
The facility also boasts two moveable Stark bulkheads, 18-inch flow over drop gutters and an underwater speaker system.
