Watford Swimming Club welcomes all swimmers to the club. We will continue to work in line with the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (DDA) to provide equal opportunities to all swimmers.

Our Head Coach has the necessary Swim England certification to coach swimmers with disabilities.

All potential swimmers attend a trial held by the Head Coach or one of his team, which will allow each swimmer's ability to be assessed.  At this point our coaches will identify the appropriate training format that best suit the individual's needs and identify which squad is most appropriate.

We will of course look to incorporate all swimmers into the club, but in the event that the club is not equipped to accommodate a swimmer due to their level of disability within our mainstream sessions, all efforts will be focused in identifying an alternative swimming programme, organisation or club that can assist.

Our coaches are continually seeking appropriate training to better equip the Club in supporting disability in swimming.
