Masters
Getting fit. Getting faster. Time, after time.
Masters Swimming caters for all swimmers over the age of 18. Most clubs cater for all ability levels, from those who swim for fitness, to competitive pool swimmers, or those who wish to take part in open water swimming.
We would encourage you to join one of our Masters Swimming Clubs, but if you feel you are not ready to join a club yet, and would still like to get back in the water – or start afresh – check out the programmes available under Get Swimming, including the very popular Swim for a Mile.
