What is this club?

Swimming at Spartan Swimming Club is moving through the water by whatever technique best suits the individual, using no artificial aids.  Experience and ability varies, with some swimmers being able to swim on their own or in groups, whilst others may need individual instruction.  This is always under the close supervision of the Chief Instructor and other instructors.

Activities are designed to improve technique and build confidence. New swimmers taught the important skills of balance and how to recover to a safe breathing position.  However, there is no pressure to achieve any specific goals: what each swimmer wants to achieve personally is respected. 

Helpers and family members are welcome to stay and may wish to assist in the water, at the discretion of the Chief Instructor.  Transport and changing room help are the responsibility of the individual member and if their family member/helper does not stay for the session, they must be easily reachable.

Membership

Membership is open to people with any type or degree of physical disability. Before you can join, you will need approval from your doctor. You will be given a Club Medical Card referring to fitness for water activities which must be returned signed by your doctor.
