Training Times

Junior swimmers are expected to attend their Friday night session on a regular basis.  All other sessions are optional – but the more you swim, the faster you’ll improve. Sessions are structured around the abilities of Friday evening training groups as shown below. If you have questions about the suitability of a particular session, just ask one of our coaches whether it would be right for you.

Coronavirus Update

23rd March 2021: We are hopeful that sessions will re-start at the new pool at Harrow Lodge Leisure Centre on 12th April - for u18s only. 

Sessions at Coopers and Campions could possibly start the following week - we'll keep you updated. 

Sessions will be similar to November. Arrive in swimming gear. Face masks for spectators etc. We'll post more when we have definitive start dates.
