About Us

We are a very professionally run Swimming club which provides teaching and coaching for swimmers of all standards from novice to National standard - covering a wide age spectrum from the very young to masters. We compete in open galas as well as local leagues and currently swim in Division Two of the Essex Swimming League. We are a friendly but professional club with an aim to develop our swimmers to reach their full potential and have a vision to become one of the top clubs in the country.

We swim at a number of pools across the area. Training is currently held at:

- Basildon Gloucester Park pool, Sunday, Monday and Friday mornings plus Thursday & Friday evenings

- Wickford swimming pool on Sunday evenings and Tuesday mornings.

- Corringham swimming pool on Thursday mornings

- Pitsea swimming pool on Wednesday mornings and evenings

We have a professional swimming coach, fully qualified swimming teachers and qualified assistant teachers. Charges start from only £15.50 per month for a weekly one hour session.

We will train at the new 50 metre pool in Gloucester Park, Basildon when it is built - see our Useful Links page for news on this!

We normally swim throughout the year apart from a 2 week break in the summer and one/two weeks at Christmas.
