Management of the Weymouth SC
Weymouth Swimming Club was established in 1825 and has a long tradition of swimming teaching, originating in open water work in the Weymouth Bay.
Weymouth SC is wholly amateur run by an Executive committee, elected annually, who have delegated responsibility for the administration of the club from the members with a not for profit philosophy as far as it is feasible or practicable.
The Executive Committee exercises financial control over the affairs of the club based on the advice of the Honorary Treasurer.
The Weymouth SC is fully committed to providing the opportunity for all children to learn to swim and participate in the club’s aquatic disciplines. In view of its long history there is a very strong lifelong participation element and ethos. With two and sometimes three generations of families involved. The Weymouth SC provides a service to the community and many of the teachers/coaches are involved with existing learning to swim and teaching programmes in schools and the Borough pool.
The swimming activities are run by a qualified team of coaches and teachers catering for beginners, improvers and competitive swimmers to County, District and National qualifying levels. The club is based at the Weymouth & Portland Borough swimming pool at Knightsdale Road in Weymouth.
