Our Club Championships – Spring Meet is taking place on Sunday 15 March, and we’re offering families, individuals, and local businesses the opportunity to sponsor one or more championship events.

Sponsorship is £25 per event, and in return your chosen name will:

• appear in the official event programme, and
• be announced during the meet.

You can sponsor in your family name (e.g. “The Smith Family”), a swimmer’s name, or your business name — whichever you prefer.

It’s a simple but meaningful way to show your support, and every penny raised goes directly back into helping our swimmers and supporting club activities.

• 100m Freestyle
• 50m Breaststroke
• 100m Breaststroke
• 50m Backstroke
• 100m Backstroke

To sponsor an event, please email [email protected] with:

• the event(s) you’d like to sponsor
• a reserve choice (in case your first choice has already been taken)
• the name you’d like listed (family name, swimmer’s name, or business name)

Why Our Club Championships Matter

As a competitive swimming club, our internal meets are an essential part of the swimmer pathway. They give every swimmer the opportunity to race, improve, and celebrate progress alongside teammates.

We expect all Development Group and squad swimmers to take part — whether it’s your first gala or your fiftieth, it’s a great chance to set new personal bests and gain valuable race experience in a supportive environment.

There are no minimum entry times, and events are seeded by ability, so everyone can take part and enjoy the day. Medals will be awarded to Female and Male/Open swimmers placing 1st, 2nd and 3rd in each age group.

Venue

Darwen Leisure Centre is an excellent competition venue, with an 8-lane 25m pool, electronic timing, and ample spectator seating. It’s a great setting for swimmers to perform at their best while families cheer them on.
