To join the club send us an email:
Your swimmer will be invited down to a trial session with the club. You'll be able to meet one of the coaches and see how sessions are managed.

We train in Swan Leisure Centre in Crumlin. The swimming pool in Crumlin is a 25 m 5 lane swimming pool starting at 0.9m and extending to 1.8m.
There are changing and showering facilities, and our sessions are overseen by a lifeguard. The centre has a car park, and ample on-street parking if that is busy.

Wednesdays: 7-9pm

I don't want to compete- is that a problem?
No, we are happy to welcome non-competitive swimmers.
The training is competitive swimmers, or those who want to build upon their skills, or maintain fitness levels.
What normally happens during training?
Our coaching staff include warm-ups, warm-downs, high intensity training, games, and challenges.
The programmes of training ensure junior and senior swimmers are accommodated, and every session is motivational.
We can't make all the sessions, every week - is that an issue?
No, we understand that everyone has busy lives.
We work by the standard of 'what you put in, you get out'. So, if you are working to competitions then we recommend you attend as often as possible.
I'm a parent- how can I help the club?
Parents are expected to help with a Paren-on-duty; parents sit on bank side looking after a sign-in sheet, and help coaches focus on the training (subject to Garda vetting)
We also welcome any parents that want to help the committee with fundraising , organising. Anything that will help our swimmers and family friendly club.
What else do we do?
We arrange fundraising events and team building days for our swimmers (including out of the water!).
Previous events have included Dublin Climbing, awards days, and bake-offs
