SWIM21 Accreditation

Posted on Saturday, April 05, 2014 in Club Information

Over the past few months Members of the Committee have been working hard to achieve ASA Swim21 accreditation. We are pleased to announce that the club has been awarded Swim21 Club Essential this week.
This is the first of three modules; Swim21 Club Essential, Swim21 Club Network and Swim21 Performance Environment. Over the coming months we will be working towards Swim21 Club Network. The Swim21 Performance Environment is yet to be released by the ASA.
Swim21 Club is the ASA’s aquatic quality mark for the development of effective, ethical and sustainable ASA affiliated clubs.
Swim21 Club Essential is a key module which will support clubs to grow membership, develop volunteers and ensure the sustainability of activity in line with the objective of the club.
The Swim21 programme enhances club management, strengthens the structures and unites the club with a philosophy and programmes that ensures the best environment is available for our swimmers.

Below are just some of the key outcomes and benefits of becoming Swim21 accredited:

DISCOUNT ON ASA AWARDS
