Are you aged 5 or over? Can you swim 1 width on your front and 1 width on your back? They don’t need to be perfect and its ok if you need to stop, so long as you can get from one side to the other.
If so then why not come along and get tested. You will either be allocated an appropriate lane and can become a member, or otherwise we can give you points to practice.
TESTING NIGHT : 1st Monday of every Month… 5.05pm – 6:05pm
If you want to improve your swimming, whether it’s just for fun or with the aim of competing in the future, then our

water play to make learning fun!
