Fantastic Swimming from Team Bircotes at the Notts ASA Stage 2 Gala last night. At the half way point we were 1st and finished the night 2nd (only a few points from the winners). Plus everyone's favourite the Cannon we came 1st and led from start to finish🤩💪. Swimmers looked like they thoroughly enjoyed it with once again tremendous team spirit, plenty of cheering and support for each other☺️. Thank you so much swimmers for a massive effort and working hard👏

Please be careful around open water. It doesn't matter if you are an excellent swimmer, cold water shock is a real threat!

Last night, some of our already experienced open water swimmers did their first lake swim of the year. The weather was very kind to us, but the water still very cold. We look forward to introducing new swimmers to our open water programme in a few weeks time, when the water has warmed up a bit.

These are the current training session times Bircotes Swimming Club can offer.

We are actively seeking swimmers in the SEA Turtles group - (younger swimmers 7yrs+ who can swim at least 1 length of each stroke) looking to getting involved in swimming competitions.

Please get in touch through our website or DM if you would like more information.

Bircotes Leisure Centre is 50 years of age this week!
To celebrate this Saturday during normal training swimmers we will take on a challenge for at least 50 swimmers to swim at least 50 miles between them. Aim is for our Otters and Lions to swim approximately one mile each and our Turtle group will swim as much as they can. The challenge will be for the charity that Bircotes Leisure Centre has nominated for their week of celebration - Weston Park. Donations are voluntary and we will display a QR code for the donation to be made. The Centre is also making a 70's theme so expect our coaches/volunteers to come in fancy dress and swimmers are encouraged to wear their brightest swimwear and hats.
