The New Swimming Club Awards Have been added to our program

The six progressive Swimming Club Awards help children make the transition from the Swim England Learn To Swim Programme to a club level swimmer. This session will be an option following on from the Challenge awards.

All the awards have to be delivered and assessed by a qualified level 2 swim coach. Level 3 Coach Mark Crouch will deliver this session. Swimmers achieving Level 2 of this award can then be recommended to a competitive club.These sessions take place at Castleton on Saturdays at 10-11am.

SWIM LESSONS UPDATE 4th November 2020

Once again we find ourselves in a shutdown situation due to Covid 19.

All lessons will therefore be suspended until further notice and fees frozen until we return. Hopefully this will be on the 5th December, all being well. We will keep all parents up to date with any future developments and we will attempt to send messages through our contact lists to everyone, to keep you informed.

Stay safe and follow the guidelines and we look forward to seeing you all soon.
