YOUR FIRST NIGHT:

After entry you should report to the club ‘check in’ desk at poolside where you will be directed to an appropriate coach for assessment of your child’s swimming ability.
After this assessment your child will be assigned to an appropriate group comprising of swimmers at a similar competency level. You will then be advised of the group start time for future club nights.
Your child will advance through the groups as their swimming progresses. Advancement to the main pool is achieved after attaining 50 metres (at required standard.)
[You should be aware that our club sometimes uses some of our advanced swimmers (secondary school age) to assist in the learners pool. This is done in the interests of safety and is always carried out in the presence of the Head Coach or another suitably qualified coach.]

HOW CAN YOU HELP? :

· Please be on time.
· Have your children ready with goggles adjusted correctly.
· Swim caps will be provided by the club and must be worn each club night.
· Parent & coaching assistance is always welcome with our club offering to assist coaches with their training and further development.
