SWIMMING TRIALS FORM
Please note: we are currently full in certain squads and so completed applications will be dealt with in order of receipt and you will be notified as soon as a space for trial becomes available.
Firstly, please fill out the trials application form below. You will be contacted by email and may be offered a trial. The trial takes place during one of our training sessions, usually throughout the duration of the session. . Please note that this might not be the case for all swimmers.
Young swimmers will be asked to demonstrate their ability by swimming one width or length of the pool in three out of four strokes; front crawl, back crawl, breast stroke and butterfly.
After your trial, the coach will often be able to inform you whether your swimming has reached the desired standard for entry into the club or whether any further practice is necessary before entry is offered. If not, you will receive an email confirmation within 48 hours.
Occasionally there may also be a waiting list and we may not be able to offer a trial to everyone who applies.
If you are offered a place you will be emailed a membership link which you should complete online, paying any necessary membership fees and setting up your monthly payment plan. Details of the charges the club makes are given separately on this website.
But don’t be overawed by the prospect of a trial, we are a friendly club and will make the process as easy and enjoyable as possible. Swimming is a fantastic sport which offers many benefits.
If you would like to observe any of our training sessions before joining please do not hesitate to come along to any one of the swim school or junior sessions on our training schedule, make yourself known to the coaches, see what goes on and discuss your needs.
