How We Operate

All abilities welcome. New swimmers start with 12.5m (assisted) or 25m events and move up as they hit qualifying times. The goal is improvement and fun 🐬🎉.

Before club night

Nominations are made in the Swim Club Connect app (iOS and Android) and close at 5:00pm Fridays.
New swimmers nominate for 25m events until they meet qualifying times for 50m.
Can’t attend? Please remove nominations in the app to avoid losing aggregate points.

On club night

Gates open 5:30pm with free swim 5:45–6:15pm.
Racing starts 6:30pm. Results are uploaded live to the app.
Free trials or late entries go in “add-on” heats (no recorded times or points).
The 12.5m race runs before the first heat for younger swimmers (senior swimmers assist).

Qualifying times (to move from 25m → 50m)

Freestyle: under 23.00s
Butterfly: under 24.00s
Backstroke & Breaststroke: under 28.00s

Longer distances have additional qualifying steps. Ask at the office on the night.

Aggregate points (PB system)

We use a scratch grading system that rewards improvement against your base time (your PB). Points are awarded each swim based on how close you are to your base.

Full details available at the office.

Wet weather

We swim in light rain ☔. If conditions are unsafe, we’ll cancel by email and post on Facebook.

Safety & pool rules

Please follow official directions, stay within pool boundaries, and keep the area tidy. No glass in the complex.

Carnivals

We attend a small number of friendly carnivals each season. Families are notified early to nominate. Some carnivals charge entry fees. Relays are formed based on attendance and team balance.
