Looking for a swimming club?


Recommended Posts

We have spaces for swimmers at our friendly ASA swimming club for children and adults. We run two sessions a week which are coached by experienced qualified ex competitive swimmers who give their time for free:


Thursdays at Dulwich College pool, 8:00pm-9:00pm

These sessions are fantastic for teens and adults (although strong younger swimmers, year 6 and above are very welcome). Thursday swimmers need to be able to swim at least two lengths (50m) comfortably.


Sundays at Alleyn?s School pool, 11:50am-12:50pm

These family sessions are for all swimmers aged 7+. Be prepared for lessons in all four strokes/ diving and turns over widths and lengths to build stamina and technique. There are fun team relays to finish.


Come and swim with your child/teen, or watch on the side while they do the work! The emphasis is on enjoyment, fitness and technique. This is not a competitive club.


It?s pay as you go, just ?5 on Thursdays and ?3 for the Sunday session, with an annual membership of ?25 for kids (under 18 and students not in full time employment) and ?50 for adults.


Please PM us for a first session.

Thanks for your interest. There are still some spaces available - drop us a message at [email protected]. It's a very friendly club, and a great way to improve your swimming without having to compete. Sessions will start again early in the new year. Let us know if you are interested, or if you have any questions.

My daughter (11) also swims there - both sessions - Thursday evening and Sunday morning. I agree, its a very friendly and fun club and while it isn?t competitive like some, the coaching is excellent as well as effective and also very enjoyable. Instead of endless lengths, training is also incorporated into fun relays and games (there are, obviously also lengths too!). There are all sorts of levels of swimmers and so no one would feel left out. The improvement in my daughter?s swimming (and fitness) has also been considerable, within a short space of time. She loves it and can?t wait for the next session. I reckon it?s one of the best kept secrets in Dulwich!

Thank you SusanLMBrown and dulwichbloke. Delighted that your daughters get so much out of the club.

We still have some space on Thursdays 8-9pm at Dulwich College sports centre. This is suitable for adults and (pre-)teens who are comfortable swimming a couple of lengths at a time. ?5 a session drop in, with an annual membership fee of ?25 under-18s, ?50 adults. Email us at [email protected] to sign up for a trial session.


Excellent coaching for excellent value - and a great way of relieving exam/work stress!

    • Nor me, I left there years ago, even though it's just round the corner from where I live.
    • I noticed this announcement en passant while doing various searches on the libraries website.  When I eventually went back to  make a proper note, I couldn't find it.  Eventually discovered it in the middle of the catalogue basic search page, and thought it well to post it here too. Easter opening hours All libraries will be closed on the following days: Friday 29 March 2024   Sunday 31 March 2024  Monday 1 April 2024 
    • I am at The Gardens. I saw GP on a Wednesday and he recommended physio, he checked availability and offered Tessa Jowell Centre for Saturday at 1 pm or Forest Hill Road Practice on a Monday at 11 am. I chose FH- very efficient/ Physio at FH very helpful, sent me some neck exercises and referred me for spinal assessment at Kings.
    • Of course, people's experiences may vary, but I'm afraid I can't recommend the DMC on Crystal Palace Rd.
