Do you have an interest in Teaching Swimming ? We need to recruit some new swimming teachers for our learn to swim section as two existing teachers will be heading to university in September. Unfortunately, due to a change in circumstances the planned replacements are no longer available. We are therefore looking for parents, swimmers or siblings aged over 16, who are interested in becoming a swimming teacher. You do not need to have any experience of teaching swimming or have been a swimmer . You just need to be enthusiastic and reliable and love swimming. The club will offer support with training and pay for the relevant Swim England courses. Anybody who is interested is welcome ( subject to a DBS check ) to come along to a session once we are back swimming to see what is involved.

Please contact Graham for further details.

The Club Needs You

The last lesson of this term is Sunday 20 December. The spring term starts on Tuesday 5 January and finishes on 28 March. There is no swimming on 14 and 16 February. The cost for next term is £46 which is adjusted for the lessons cancelled this term.

Please pay by 31 December to account ended 268.

I will e mail those parents whose child is changing classes after 20 December .

As a result of the break in training activities due to lockdown 2, SE are recommending that each swimmer must complete an updated Return to training document and Health Survey Can everyone please arrange to complete and return the documents to Covid Officer as soon as possible.

In addition can we please remind everyone that whilst we are delighted to be returning to training, we remain in a Tier 3 area, and have experienced a large number of our members having to self isolate due to Covid 19 issues in local schools. We must stress the adherence to all Covid policies will be mandatory and please ensure there is no form of socialising in any form of groups, either before or immediately following a session. We have been requested by SE to stress the importance of this in endeavouring to keep all our members safe.

Many thanks to you all for your ongoing support in these challenging times.

Please can all communication in respect of Covid-19 issues be sent directly to the following email address: covid-19@swimleamington.org.

Many thanks.

The club is mindful of the evolving local situation in respect of Covid 19, and sadly the inevitable self isolation/quarantine measures members are being required to take.

Please find attached the clubs policy in respect of self isolation/quarantine and a summary information sheet,which we hope will be helpful to all members dealing with these issues.

LSASC Covid Policy

Covid Training Advice.​​

 Please rest assured whilst all squads are required to achieve their squad attendance requirements, periods of mandatory self isolation/quarantine will be taken account of and no swimmer will be adversely affected by this requirement.

We thank you for your ongoing help and support in keeping our members safe and swimming.

A member of the Club's squads has a serious nut and seed allergy.  If she comes into contact with traces of nuts and some seeds she risks an allergic reaction which could result in anaphylactic shock.  We would be grateful therefore if parents and swimmers could be aware of this and ask that you avoid bringing snacks containing nuts and seeds to galas. Thank you for your cooperation.
