'Come and Try' our Swimming Club
We would love to meet you, so please come alone
and give our club a go.
The bottom line is that swimmers
train to reach their full potential and goals. Be that in competitive swimming or
simply to improve fitness. Over a 12-month period we have 5 swim
meets that are compulsory for everyone, though there are always
plenty of meets available should you wish to do more. Being based at
Coburg Leisure Centre we have the support of management behind us
and the club is growing all the time.
We would love to meet you, the first 2 weeks
of training are free so we can assess your child and place them in a
squad suitable for their ability. The two weeks also gives them the
chance to see if they enjoy the squad they are in.
Anyone from age 6 and over may
join provided they can swim 50m of Freestyle and backstroke
comfortably. Should you wish to continue your swimming lessons as well as
do swim club this is a great transition into the swimming club.
Please fill in the enquiry form below and we will
contact you as soon as possible.
Kind regards
Katie Clarke
The best
days to come along for an assessment are Wednesdays or Fridays 7pm
at Coburg Leisure Centre.
Please pay casual entry at
the door asking for a Links Card. You will then be directed to pool
deck where coaches are easily identifiable.
We do look forward to seeing you soon.

You will then be given a day and time to come in for an

Centre.
Once you have been assessed you will be told what squad is best
for you and you can select the suitable training times. Fees are
paid on a term by term basis and there are no refunds for missed
sessions. Swimmers are welcome to do an alternative session if they
miss a session.
Registration with
Swimming Victoria is Compulsory for all Club Members this covers
your insurance for club activities both in and out of the water. The
first year you may register as a 'learn to swim member' however you
can only compete in special events specifically for learn to swim
registered members. After 12-months swimmers must register as
competitors.
You will be given a Swimming Victoria registration form to
complete that needs to be returned with the annual fee as soon as
you commence training. Again this is your insurance so needs to be
completed.
Once you have returned this form you receive two weeks of
training at no charge as well as a complimentary kickboard (while
stocks last). Like any sport you will need equipment for training
and racing there is a comprehensive list below of what is required.
Should you have any further questions please ask when you contact
