Our Thursday coached swim session is often oversubscribed due to limited availability of swimming lanes.
These sessions focus on front crawl, with structured sets to improve endurance, efficiency, overall technique, and swim fitness.
You should be able to swim at least 100m front crawl continuously to join. Sessions typically total 1500–2000m+, so expect a solid workout.
Please arrive poolside 10 minutes before the session starts. Bring goggles, a drink for poolside, and any swim kit you normally use. Short training fins are highly recommended as they are very helpful for drills.
If you are a new or inexperienced swimmer and do not feel quite ready for a full session of front crawl, then we can recommend the following which focus on improving general swimming technique and endurance:
- Littlehampton & Bognor Regis
- Worthing
Once you’re comfortable swimming 100m front crawl continuously we’d love to have you along.
