We run regular swim distance days for both adults and children. Everybody is welcome and it’s an opportunity to attempt a Swim England distance award whether you are working towards 5 metres or 3000 metres!

EVENT CRITERIA

  • Swimmers wanting to complete distances of more than 800m must arrive promptly at the start of the session.  
  • Swimmers are to wait on poolside until instructed by the Swim Team about the rules of the event and put into lanes. 
  • Parents are not permitted to stay on poolside whilst their children are swimming, Please spectate from the viewing gallery upstairs. 
  • Distances over 25m must be a recognisable stroke to swim England standards and be without any struggles or stopping. 
  • The swimmers must not pull, rest or hang on the lane ropes or pool walls and cannot stop each length for any amount of time, instead they should just touch the wall and go immediately, or swim to the end and around and back down the lane. If they need to adjust goggles, they must tread water before continuing with their swim.  If they do stop for any length of time the distance will be marked as completed at this point. 
  • Strokes can be changed at the end of a length.
