More about the WAC

A community-based facility for Warringah.  The Warringah Aquatic Centre has been proudly owned and managed by Warringah Council Warringah Council home pagesince its opening in November 1979.

Our aim is to create a viable and vital aquatic recreation facility for Warringah, by encouraging and assisting the local community in their use and enjoyment of the Centre.

 

Prior to the opening of the Homebush Aquatic Centre, the Warringah Aquatic Centre hosted the NSW and Australian Swimming Titles and the 1992 Olympic Trials.

The Centre has also been a training venue for canoe polo, underwater hockey, synchronised swimming and the ITU World Cup.

The WAC has featured in television commercials both here and abroad, including a memorable Coke ad for Japan starring Ian Thorpe. We've been seen on screens in countries as diverse as Korea and India, and for products from Cussons Soap to Bundy Rum. We've also provided the location for photo shoots for past and current Olympians like Haley Lewis, Susie O'Neill, Claudia Poll,Kieran Perkins, Libby Trickett and Leisel Jones.
