Trundle Swimming Club

Trundle Amateur Swimming Club is getting ready to welcome all to the 2024-2025 swimming season at the start of next month.

Trundle Swimming Club is run by a group of volunteers who provide the opportunity for swim training and safety for kids 5 to 17 in Trundle and the surrounding communities.

The club provides coaching and swimming lessons as well as hosting races and meets for all members.

Members and coaches get together every Wednesday from 4pm to 5pm.

The first afternoon of swimming will be on Wednesday, November 6 which will be a gala day where everyone is welcome to come along and get to know everybody.

On Wednesday, November 13 will be a meet and greet with swimmers and coaches.

Kids will be grouped into levels depending on their swimming ability and they will be coached and conduct time trials.

"We have found that over covid and with the floods, the pool was closed for so long that lessons are needed," Trundle Swimming Club vice president Rebecca Walter said.

"Our club is very friendly, it's fun and it's run in a way that includes everybody and there's the opportunity for children to develop their skills, hang out with their friends and make new friends and learn about water safety."

Trundle Swimming Club have three coaches this year providing the community with a service that isn't always readily available in country areas.

If you are interested in supporting this community club reach out to the team on facebook at Trundle Amateur Swimming Club.

Any sponsorships or donations would be greatly appreciated by the club as after covid and the floods equipment has needed to be upgraded.

"Our microphones have stopped working and even our stopwatches due to just not being used or delayed, so if there is anybody out there who is keen to support the club please reach out," Rebecca added.

Registrations are now open online to join the Trundle Swimming Club and will close on Saturday, November 16.

Make sure to like the Trundle Amateur Swimming Club on facebook as this is the best place to find information and to keep up to date with changes.

"We're hoping around 40 people join the club for this swimming season and our president Kristie is already doing an amazing job."

The Trundle Swimming Pool will open on Wednesday, November 6 and will be opened from Wednesday to Sunday during the season.

The facility offers a 25m pool, shaded toddlers pool, limited kiosk, diving platform, BBQ area and change rooms.

Make sure to give the pool a visit this season.
