TWO – COLLEGE SWIMMING MADNESS

We have data-rich reports, features on the biggest names in college swimming, and all of the college recruiting tips you’ll ever need from coaches across all divisions. Plus, we honor Katie Ledecky as she enters the college ranks!
THREE – THE MICHAEL PHELPS COVERS
Michael Phelps in nothing but gold and Phelps in stunning black and white!
How do you like that gold leaf and the camera angle of Michael Phelps‘ world-famous pre-start arm-flap?
And there’s Phelps in black and while on the 2015 Year in Review. These are must-have digital issues, and you get them as soon as you subscribe.
4 – Collector’s Items
I own the 1972 Life Magazine cover of Mark Spitz. That issue was their preview for the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich where Spitz went on to win seven gold medals. The magazine cover is iconic. That’s what we’re going for with the Olympic Preview, College Preview and the 2016 Olympic Year in Review. These are issues you will want to keep forever.
5 – LARGE ISSUES
Pictured above, see our first three issues. The premiere issue was 132 pages. The 2016 Swimsuit Issue is 172 pages, and The Olympic Preview is 196 pages! That’s 500 pages of swimming info, features and entertainment over our first three issues. With your subscription, you will receive big, thick magazines. They are not only thicker than what you’re used to, they’re larger than traditional magazines. They are 9×10.875.
SwimSwam Magazine, each of the issues, are nearly a pound. That’s heavy, the type of magazines you will want on your coffee table.
If you haven’t subscribed, you simply don’t know. SwimSwam Magazine is not only higher quality, you feel it the instant you touch the magazine. The texture is amazing, and you’ll love how heavy it feels in your hand.
6 – So Many Profiles
Profiles on Olympians and College swimmers are insightful. We reach back and look forward with a keen eye to enhance the drama which makes our sport so great. Katie Ledecky, Nathan Adrian, Ryan Lochte, Caeleb Dressel, Ryan Murphy and many, many more are covered.
