Competitive Swimming
We are a friendly and competitive
swimming club based at Putney Leisure Centre in South West
London. The Club has over 160 swimmers from seven years
old to open age group; and operates almost ninety hours
of pool time per week across
six squads.
As a Club we compete in the First Division of
the National Arena
League, in addition to offering our swimmers a programme
of open meets throughout the year. The Club supports the Crystal Palace Club Network by
integrating its performance squads into those sessions that
are run at Crystal Palace.
Wandsworth Swimming Club is SwimMark accredited and we
have introduced talent pathways across all age group squads.
We have done this to foster a life long participation in
swimming for all our athletes, and to provide a mentoring
system to maximise the potential of our swimmers.
Swimming for
fitness
In 2016 we introduced a fitness squad for
swimmers 11+ who are interested in gaining and maintaining
swim fitness but are not able to commit to the level required
for the club's competitive squads. For more information see our
fitness squad page.
Diving
WSC's diving squad was established in 2015 and is
based at Putney Leisure Centre where the facilities include 1m and
3m spring boards as well as a five metre platform. We welcome
divers of all abilities from complete beginners to those with more
experience. Divers will be taught the mechanics of dives from all
heights and will be given opportunities to compete. For more
information see our
diving page.
