Summer Holiday Training Changes 2025
As in previous years we will be reducing training slightly over the summer to allow swimmers a little break and for the coaching team to get some much needed rest, before we begin the new season in September.
Swimming has an incredibly long season, probably longer than any other sport, and, with this in mind, it is very important for us all to regenerate and refresh during August so we can come back in September with renewed energy. It is also important to note that keeping a good degree of aerobic base fitness during August will give our swimmers a distinct advantage going into the early season meets which begin with our own September Sprints Meet and the North Midlands.
August will not only be a time for light aerobic training but a great opportunity for a real push on our skills and technique on all four strokes and underwater work.
Lessons and Transition
Lessons and Transition will continue as normal over the holidays. There may be some opportunities for additional sessions but we will post these closer to the time.
Summer Training Schedule
There will be NO Sunday morning training from now (18th July) until the end of the summer holidays. Sunday morning swimmers can train on a Sunday afternoon instead from 4-5.30pm.

All training times will return to normal from Monday 1st September.
We as a club have had an absolutely wonderful season with so much to celebrate for all our swimmers. Our results don’t happen through chance, it is many hours of hard work, commitment and dedication from all swimmers, coaches, parents, officials and committee. So well done and thank you to everyone who has contributed to our clubs results, an outstanding team effort.
Have a great summer.
The Coaching Team
