Hello and on behalf of the committee and all club members I would like to welcome you to Rotherham Metro Swimming Club.

Our aim is to be the club of choice for young swimmers in the Rotherham area who are interested in becoming involved in competitive swimming. We are a competitive club and as such we encourage our young athletes to participate in competitive swimming suitable for their ability with varying levels of competition available to our members.

Swimming is however a long term commitment and it takes many years for young swimmers to develop all the necessary skills. It is important to remain supportive and patient and this will enable your child to reach their full potential in the pool.

We aim to provide opportunities for young swimmers to develop these required technical, physical and personal skills and our squad structure facilitates progression with the ultimate goal for those with the necessary ability, commitment and work ethic being our A squad, which currently has members who compete at National level.

The world of competitive swimming can be a little daunting to the newcomer and so your child’s coach can provide valuable advice about when your child is ready to compete and which galas are suitable. On other matters liaison officers, committee members and I will always be happy to offer any help and advice we can. It is also worth keeping an eye on our notice boards for gala information and news of other club activities.

Welcome once again and I hope your time with the club is an enjoyable and successful one.

Regards Richard Jackson

Rotherham Metro Chairman
