New/ Prospective Members Page.
Satellites welcome new members of all ages and abilities from teaching classes
to national level swimmers.
We aim to train swimmers to attain a high standard of achievement and at the
same time ensure swimmers enjoy themselves.
The club is welcoming and friendly and has been in existence for many years.
In addition to providing teaching for the beginner or improving swimmer, the
club competes throughout the year in a regular programme of team and individual
events both locally and across the north west region.
The club organises two of its own graded meets and a club championship, in which
all members are welcome to compete.
Satellites Swimming Club is run by an elected committee who are responsible for
the day to day running of the club, for organising swim galas, social and
fundraising events and to ensure the club is financially responsible.
All teaching and training sessions, training schedules and team selections are
the responsibility of the Head Coach, with the support of our fully qualified
coaching team.
Parents of swimmers are actively encouraged to support the club in any capacity
they can, from manning the reception desk, to time-keeping, team management or
committee member! The club runs training sessions occasionally to help parents
acquire new skills to assist the club.
