Which route is right for you?
Joining starts with an enquiry, not a form you have to decode. Find your route below: each one sets out the actual steps, the costs, and what happens next.
How it works
How joining works.
Trial and assessment
For squads and assessed routes: a free trial, then a coach assessment. Squad trials run on Monday and Wednesday evenings at 7pm at Isleworth. Complete beginners in Learn to Swim skip this step and register directly. If a programme is full, swimmers can join the waiting list.
Register and swim
Registration comes next, then a Swim Club Manager link to set up Direct Debit. Members use Swim Club Manager to track progress and receive club communications.
