LATEST NEWS - Review of 2024:
As Devon Counties finished this weekend, it is a good time to reflect on the last year of swimming at Exmouth.
After less than a full year of our new training program, the improvement in swimming has been amazing.
For the first time in several years Exmouth was represented at the National Arena League with swimmers travelling as far as Newport together to represent our town, with generations of swimmers competing alongside each other.
We also competed at the East Devon Mini League, Honiton and Kingsbridge galas, as well as several open meets where swimmers worked hard to gain entry times for Counties.
This hard work paid off and 14 Exmouth swimmers achieved a stunning 57 County qualifying times this year.
At the Championships themselves, we had 38 swims, 36 personal best times, 21 finals, 1 Regional qualifying time and 5 medals, including a County Champion.
A special mention to Rosie, and Rory who both won bronze medals and to Liberty, who got the full set of Bronze, Silver and Gold.
A huge well done to all the swimmers at The Club who have made this happen; to all the parents for their ongoing support; the coaches - for their time and hard work; our team managers and officials who give up their weekends to make competitions happen; and The Committee, who have worked to increase the training provision that The Club are now able to offer.
Without all of your support, the swimmers would not have been able to achieve all they have over the last few weekends.
I look forward to seeing the progress we can make over the next year!

FROM THE CHAIRMAN
Hello and welcome to our website
Here at Exmouth Swimming Club we aim to offer a friendly and supportive environment where all our swimmers are able to develop and improve their swimming potential and ultimately, their competitiveness.
We have swimming opportunities for all ages - from our Learn to Swim programme where we teach those aged 4+ the basics of swimming, through to our Masters squad for those aged 17+.
Our Development, Junior and Youth squads focus on technique and speed development, enabling them to compete as individuals and as part of the Exmouth Swimming Club team at local and regional events.
We currently have 4 sessions available during the week for all our squads to train and an additional 'invitation only' session for our most committed swimmers.
Our Swim England qualified coaches and teachers are lead by our Head Coach, Rob and are supported by a team of volunteer teaching assistants, officials, team managers and Committee members who together, ensure the successful running of The Club.
If you'd like to become part of our growing membership - either as a swimmer or volunteer, then please do get in touch with us at: [email protected] so that we can provide you with more information.
Mike, Chairman
