Our swimming club is attended by around 20 swimmers who have completed their Learn
To Swim programme and wish to further their knowledge and skills in swimming. The
club trains every Friday evening. We are a non-competitive club, but on occasion
we look to arrange small galas with other similar clubs.
As well as training, we also offer courses for the swimmers- in 2011 we have run
Rookie Lifeguard and also the STA Student Teachers Award, both of which are really
helpful courses for young people for improving their skills for future employment.
The club is coached by David McLean and John Crombie. The coaches are looking in
to organising a ‘pre-club’ for swimmers who have just completed their level certificates
as a step up to the swimming club. This will hopefully be arranged for mid February
2012. We hope that the pre-club will provide even more children with helpful opportunities.
