As a not-for-profit organisation operating through a voluntary management committee and given our programme is constrained by high costs for pool hire, we are actively seeking sponsors.

 

Swimming is one of Scotland’s most popular participation sports and continues to raise its profile nationwide, e.g. Scottish Swimming's Learn to Swim Ambassador, Duncan Scott, one of Britain's most decorated athletes. Through investing in our swim team your organisation would be supporting us to build on our recent successes, as well as investing in future elite swimmers.

 

About our team:

• Current membership of over 60 swimmers, 4 coaches and many volunteers 

• Around 40 athletes compete at National Level, with over 20 medals won last season

• We had 6 swimmers competing at the British Summer Championships, emerging with a bronze medal

• A swimmer attending the British World Championship trials

• We finished top 10 at the Scottish National Age Groups and top-5 in the Scottish National League Championships

• We have 15 swimmers selected for the Scottish Swimming junior programme, with 10 in National Junior Academy, 4 in the National Youth Academy and 1 in the National Junior team. 

• Our swimmers compete in  competitions throughout the year, some of which (Scottish & UK level) are normally streamed live over the Internet providing additional publicity and awareness

• Access to an average of 350 spectators at each competition 

• Links to local swim schools and our home clubs of Musselburgh, Haddington and Tranent (~400 swimmers) reaching additional swimmers and parents in the local community

• Our swimmers have gone on to represent Scotland and Britain at international competitions including the European Juniors, Commonwealth Games, World Para Swimming Championships and the Rio, Tokyo and Paris Paralympics. 

​

We urge you to support our Swim Team. Your return will benefit your organisation as well as positively contributing to the health and wellbeing of young athletes in the local community, and in the development of future potential Olympians.
