The London Silver Dolphins Masters Swim Team is a non-profit organization run by a volunteer executive. The London Silver Dolphins was founded in 1983 by current team member Chuck Grace, who has seen the Team grow from a handful of members to currently over 100 team members. The Silver Dolphins accommodate a broad range of Masters swimming skill levels, from Novice to Elite Masters competitive swimmers, and those who swim for "fun, fitness and friendship." We are six time Ontario Masters Swimming Champions (2006-2008, 2010, 2013, 2014) and Canadian Masters Swimming Champions in 2014! We run our swim team out of the Canada Games Aquatic Centre in London Ontario five days of the week.

Welcome everyone, my name is Jodie Zimmer and I am the President of the London Silver Dolphins. A little bit about my background. I have an Honours degree in Exercise Physiology and a minor in Teaching and Coaching.  I have been teaching Elementary school for 29 years and during that time I have coached Cross-country, basketball, volleyball, and track and field, and I have had my Personal Training Certificate from CanFitPro for over 20 years.

I started swimming when I was 3 years old and went on to become an instructor and lifeguard for 20 years at the Aylmer Pool and in Windsor during my years at University.  When I started to train for Ironmans I joined the Silver Dolphins to get extra time in the pool and to swim with a group! Sixteen years later I have become the President! To further my swimming experience I have recently obtained my National Coaching Certificate (NCCP) in Swimming!
