About Us
Nansemond Swim Club (NSC) is a seasonal outdoor community pool located in the historic neighborhood of Eclipse in Suffolk, Virginia, and we welcome new members. NSC is a private, members-only club that has been in continuous operation for over 50 years. During the summer operating season, NSC is open seven days a week from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
The pool offers both shallow and deep end swimming along with a diving board and a separate, gated toddler pool. One lap lane is reserved for lap swimmers at all times. Members can reserve one of the three picnic pavilions for birthday parties, cookouts or celebrations, and gas grills are available. Both group and private swimming lessons are offered annually.
NSC is also home to the Nansemond Sharks which is a summer swim league and competes against other community pools as part of the Western Tidewater Swimming Association.
