LEARN TO SWIM
 |
Learn
to Swim classes take place every Saturday morning
from November to March.
These
classes are taught by voluntary members of the Amateur Swimming Club.
This
year we had a big influx of children learning to swim as most clubs closed down
their Learn to Swim classes.
We
had over 220 children enrol, we now run a 9.30
session and a 10.15 session, also an adult session at
The
children are divided into colour groups depending on
their confidence etc. The lowest group
is white, red, yellow, green, then blue.
Once
they reach blue level their aim is to swim 3 x 25m lengths of Freestyle using
correct strokes and breathing.
They
then receive a certificate and usually join the club and become a member of
squad training and or Club races.
