Squad Training Times

Performance Reviews

Performance reviews will be carried out every six months to monitor swimmers’ progress and assess their suitability to move up to the next squad.
Swimmers who are not meeting the criteria and expectations for the squad will be informed of this, and have a further three months to reach the required standard.  If swimmers are still not meeting the squad’s criteria after the three months, they will be moved to a more appropriate squad for their abilities and ambitions.

• Annual fees for 2010 - £25 per year (or £40 for families) for membership and insurance (payable in January or upon joining club)
• Each additional child in family gets 20% discount on monthly fee
• Monthly fee covers all squad sessions (including land training)

Payment Options

Payments are due on the 1st of each month, and paid by standing order.  Please note that payments are not to be handed to squad coaches.
