About Our Club

Welcome to Crystal Palace Masters Swimming Club!

Located in the heart of South London, our friendly and adult-only club is dedicated to Masters swimming, both in the pool and open water events starting in 2025.

We are a motivated and determined group of swimmers. Some of us compete at regional and national levels, but what unites us is our shared commitment to improvement. We welcome open water swimmers, triathletes, racers, and anyone who uses swimming as a means to enhance their fitness. You'll be amazed at how much more you can achieve with a structured training session and the guidance of a coach, especially with small technique tips. Our group sessions include 1-on-1 technical advice, and you'll be encouraged to push your fitness levels in a supportive environment among fellow swimmers.

What to expect:

We are fortunate to have an excellent coach (who used to coach Sharron Davies!). While we don't anticipate winning any Olympic medals ourselves, we do expect all swimmers to:

• Swim 100m on an interval of 2:30, which means 30 seconds per length of the pool as a minimum.

• Swim 2k in a session.

• Tackle all strokes, even butterfly.

• Be pushed hard and receive excellent 1-on-1 coaching.

• Enjoy the camaraderie of swimming in a club.

• Follow clear coaching instructions and lane etiquette.

Come and join us for a trial session.
