Joining the Club

We are always looking for new swimmers to join the club!

Trial Memberships

Please contact the club via enquiries@prescotswimmingclub.org in order to arrange an initial assessment. These would normally take place during the Sunday club/learn to swim sessions but sometimes there are galas and other events going on.

During the assessment we will check to see which group would be best for the swimmer to go in.

The taster session is free of charge.

Membership Form for 2024

Swim England Registration

All swimmers must be registered with the Swim England (the Amateur Swimming Association) for Insurance purposes.

Swimmers who are not at competition level will be required to complete a Cat 1 (green) registration form and swimmers who compete in any competition will be required to complete a Cat 2 (yellow) registration form. This may mean that you are requested to complete forms during the year. Once registered you will receive a white plastic membership card. This shows your Swim England registration number and the club you belong to. This is a lifetime membership and unless you are changing categories, there is no need to register again. This card must be carried with you when at competition as you may be requested to show it and if you haven’t got it with you, you can be withdrawn from the competitions.

Parent Members of the club must also be registered with Swim England for insurance whilst on poolside.

Swimwear

Girls – must wear full costume – bikinis are not allowed. They must also wear a swimming cap, this is for Health and Safety reasons and girls will not be allowed to swim without a cap.

Boys – must wear trunks or Jammers (tight knee length shorts) – baggy swimming shorts are not allowed since they have a detrimental effect on technique. If hair is long, boys too will be asked to wear a cap.
