Swimming

Stretford ASC is a family club and has been established for over 100 years. We love to develop children’s technique who have a flair for swimming. We encourage team participation with those who have acquired competition times by training with us and working hard. However our club is open to any child who wants to learn to swim, keep fit and enjoy a great social life with like minded children.

Our overriding aim is to provide a teaching/coaching schedule to offer good basic knowledge and practise of all swimming strokes, thus allowing members safe, enjoyable leisure swimming. We offer this to both children and adult members, from stage 7 of the National Plan for Teaching Swimming to those who have some aptitude but wish to improve further.

Within the swimming development pathway at Stretford, there is provision for the gifted, dedicated swimmers to improve and excel in competition, with links established with City of Manchester Swim Team (COMAST)
