SRAC Pool
The Spartan Recreation and Aquatic Center (SRAC) opened in 2019. The sparkling building serves the entire student body, with cardio and weight areas, workout classrooms, a climbing wall and many other amenities. The facility also includes two outdoor pools - one for recreation and casual use and a full competition pool.
The competition pool is on the East end of the building and is the home of the San Jose State men's and women's water polo teams and the women's swimming and diving team. Conveniently located on campus next to the dining commons and the dorms, it is a perfect location to train for Spartan student-athletes.
The competition pool has coaches offices, storage and brand new locker rooms at one end and grandstands along one side.
