Info on Sessions

Where and when do we swim and how do they work?

Starting on 27 February 2024, the Adelaide University Swimming Club will hold sessions every Tuesday and Thursday from 6pm-7pm at the Adelaide Aquatic Centre in North Adelaide.  This is only a 22-minute bus ride away from The University of Adelaide North Terrace campus. Attached is a Google Maps screenshot of the 239 Bus route from campus which is one of the buses available. Arriving at the pool is your own responsibility, however, we will try to help if we can. Please post in our Facebook group if you need help getting to the pool (see 'Contact Us' page), or send us an email. We will be posting regular updates on the session day on our Facebook Group and Instagram and FB stories on how to get to the pool and what time it will be.

                                          

2024 Session Date Ranges and Times

Although our sessions start at 6pm, please arrive by 5:45pm so we can take your attendance. Then we can get into the pool together at 6pm. Our swimming sets may incorporate the use of a pull buoy and kickboard. We encourage you to bring your own if you have them, but you're welcome to use some of the club's equipment.

Semester 1: 27 Feb - 27 June, Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6pm at Adelaide Aquatic Centre

Semester 2: 23 July - 30 July at Adelaide Aquatic Centre and 1 August - 14 November at a venue to be confirmed!

 

All sessions are optional, which means every member can choose to join ANY of them without problems. We cater for swimmers who know the basic techniques of freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke. We have program available every session for the medium and fast lane swimmers. Sometimes the program requires the use of a kickboard and pull buoy. We encourage you to bring your own to the training session but if you do not have any, we can lend you one. All our equipment is marked with a unique letter. It is important that you do not share equipment with anyone else as per our COVID-19 guidelines. After you have purchased a membership, prior to coming to a session, please purchase your entries into the pool either by selecting individual sessions or selecting ALL sessions in a semester. These can be purchased  in the 'Swimming sessions' tab on our website at this link:

Important notes:

  • If you have an Adelaide Aquatic Centre membership/pass and still want to join our swimming sessions, do let us know via email or any of our socials. You will not be required to pay our club for entry, and you can continue to use your Adelaide Aquatic Centre pass.
  • All payments are either done on this website, or in person using our Square card reader. Please note that we do not accept cash. If you are unable to pay using a card, let us know by email and we will try to accomodate you.
