Swimming
Captain: Shelley Young

We offer 1-2 swimming sessions a week currently for our swimmers and we are looking at expanding the number of sessions.
We welcome swimmers of all abilities, so long as you can pass the water proficiency test set out by the SU! For those competitive swimmers, we have close ties with local swimming clubs and can get you in touch to help offer additional training.
Normally we would compete in BUCS short course and long course however, at this current time there isn’t a plan in place to hold BUCS swimming. We are looking into different ways we could compete such as local swimming leagues but we can update our members as we find out more!
