Membership Renewals 2026

Renewals will take place in 2 phases this year:

Phase 1 - renewal of all swimming members with a closing date of Sunday 4th January

Phase 2 - renewal of volunteers and coaching staff to be completed by Friday 30th January.

Membership Period

Our membership year runs 1st January - 31st December.

Costs

For each swimmer the cost of renewing membership for 2026 will be

Full membership - Club Compete: £60.00 (Competing at Level 3 and up)

Train membership - Club Train: £42.50 (Members will be registered as a Category 1 member and only able to swim in Low-Level Competition. This
will include Club Championships at up to Level 4)

We are fortunate to have over 50 non-swimming members who support the club as poolside assistants, committee members, officials, team managers and fundraisers to name just a few of the roles that are performed on a voluntary basis. We really appreciate their support and as always will happily cover the cost of the Club Support membership they require. For those that would like to contribute towards this cost, we will make available the option to donate £10 to cover club membership.

* Please use these fields to share any relevant details about your swimmer. This helps us provide better care and support while they are under our supervision. Examples of useful information include:

  • Medical Needs:
    • “My child has epilepsy. If they experience a seizure, please follow the action plan and contact me ASAP or dial 999.”
    • “My swimmer has asthma triggered by exercise. They carry a blue reliever inhaler with a spacer in their swim bag. If two puffs are ineffective, please contact me immediately.”
  • Additional Needs:
    • ADHD (diagnosed, undiagnosed, or in the process of diagnosis): Let us know if your child may struggle with focus, following instructions, or transitioning between tasks. For example:
       “My child can get easily distracted and may need reminders to stay on task during training.”
      “My swimmer benefits from clear, one-step instructions and positive reinforcement.”
    • Autism (diagnosed, undiagnosed, or in process of diagnosis): Share any triggers, coping strategies, or ways we can provide support. For example:
      “My child may become overwhelmed by loud noises or busy environments. They may need a quiet space to regroup.”
      “Routine and predictability are important for my swimmer. Sudden changes to the schedule can be stressful for them.”
      “They may not respond well to physical touch, so please avoid tapping them to get their attention.”
    • Other Additional Needs: Anything that could help us care for your swimmer better, such as:
      • Anxiety or low confidence (“My swimmer is shy and may need reassurance during galas or poolside activities.”)
      • Sensory sensitivities (“My child struggles with bright lights or loud sounds and may need adjustments when possible.”)
      • Physical considerations (“My swimmer has hypermobility and sometimes experiences joint pain after intense training.”)
      • Learning needs (“My swimmer may require instructions to be repeated slowly or demonstrated visually.”)
If there is nothing to note for medical or additional needs, please simply add  ‘None’ in this section. This ensures the section has not been missed or omitted.
Please be assured that all information shared is kept  strictly confidential and will only be accessible to those directly responsible for your child’s care.
