Find Masters swimmers like you

Find Swimmers Like You matches your swim time against U.S. Masters Swimming national rankings to show swimmers at your level. Enter your sex, age, event, course, and current time to discover Masters swimmers with similar times, see the percentile you land in nationally, and line up faster swimmers to follow and aspire to. It is a simple way to discover Masters swimmers like you without a USMS Member ID or an account.

Set an optional goal time and the tool also surfaces swimmers who have already reached it, so you can see who has swum the time you are chasing. Enter times in Short Course Yards (SCY), Short Course Meters (SCM), or Long Course Meters (LCM); each is converted to SCY so it lines up with the national rankings. Coverage spans every stroke and distance across the standard USMS event lineup.

How can I discover Masters swimmers at my speed?

Find Swimmers Like You ranks the national field for your event and age group and drops your time into it, so you can see exactly which Masters swimmers are near your speed. Swimmers slightly faster and slightly slower are shown side by side with the time gap to you.

Do I need a USMS Member ID to find swimmers like me?

No. This page uses a time you type in by hand, so it works for anyone, including swimmers who are not registered with U.S. Masters Swimming. If you do have a USMS Member ID, Openlane can analyze your full meet history separately.

What is a good time for my age group in Masters swimming?

After you enter a time, the tool shows the percentile it lands in for your event, age group, and sex based on the 2025-26 SCY season rankings, plus a suggested target if you do not set a goal. Comparing to USMS Motivational Times and Percentile-based Times gives a fuller picture of where a time stands.

Which courses and events are supported?

You can enter a time in Short Course Yards (SCY), Short Course Meters (SCM), or Long Course Meters (LCM); each is converted to SCY for matching. Every standard USMS event is supported across freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly, and individual medley.
