Swim Squad

Tuesday 7 - 8 pm

Castlerock School, Coalville, Leicestershire

Training Sessions

You can pay as you go weekly or book a multipack of sessions for a cheaper session rate.

The sessions are aimed at triathletes and endurance swimmers.

Sessions range in distance from ~2200 - 3500m depending upon the lane and speed of the swimmers.

There are usually at least two coaches on deck, often three to help manage the sessions and ensure you get the most out of it.

We offer an open squad training session on Tuesdays, at Castlerock School, Coalville, 7 - 8pm.
