Swimmers are expected to attend a minimum of two training sessions per week to support consistent progress.

Our squads

Swimmers are placed into one of three squads, each designed to support their development across all four competitive strokes.

Our programme focuses on refining technique, building endurance, and preparing swimmers for competition at the appropriate level. We also offer additional training opportunities for swimmers who are meeting county and regional times, and a development pathway through our partnership with City of Liverpool Swimming Club for swimmers with regional and national aspirations who require high-volume training.
