Thunderbird swimmers have historically enjoyed unprecedented success at the National and International levels. Since 1964, the UBC swim teams have combined to win 48 U SPORTS championships, including winning ten consecutive titles for both men and women from 1998-2007, a record unmatched in U SPORTS history. The T-Birds also own the record for most Canada West banners for both men and women.
