So, you’d like to join our club?
Here’s how to get started:
- For children aged approximately 7-12 years old
- For Junior Club swimmers wanting to transfer from another club to IASC or join as a second club
- For older swimmers ages 18-100
For children aged 7-12 years old
We usually take new swimmers between the ages of 7 and 11 years old, occasionally 12 years old. After this age, it’s unlikely children will have sufficient training to reach the required level for competitions.
We hold swim trials quarterly. However, these dates are flexible.
Children who have completed the Club Pathways course run by the Leisure Centre are considered suitable for a swim trial. However, this isn’t compulsory and a list of general swim criteria can be found here - Inverness Trial Criteria
If you would like to apply for a place on the next Swim Trial, please complete the following form - Sports Engine
Once you have filled in the online form, we will have registered your request. We will contact you nearer the next trial; places at the next trial are allocated strictly on a first come first served basis..
Meanwhile, we recommend your child complete the Club Pathway course and/or keep swimming before the trial. The other courses run by the Leisure Centre suitable for prospective members are:
- Club Pathway course
- Stroke Improvers class
- Individual lessons (Love to Swim)
- Diving classes as a week long course in the holidays
- Fitness swimming class in the holidays
- Intensive courses of individual (Love to Swim) lessons during the holidays
Information about these Leisure Centre courses can be found from the leisure centre on: [email protected]

For junior Club swimmers wanting to transfer to IASC or join as a second club
If you are already an experienced club swimmer with another team and wish to join IASC junior squads, you can write to the membership secretary on [email protected]. You should include a list of your most recent swim times.
