Winter Swimming

Winter Swimming commences on the Sunday after Easter, 12 April 2026. Each week we have Freestyle, a Form stroke and a two person relay. Swimming is fairly casual and no lane ropes are used. Races start a little later at 10.30am. Register online for Freestyle and the Formstroke using the button for Sunday Swimming in the usual way by 10.15am or come down to the pool before this time. Enter at the pool for the relay – state your combined time and those who swim closest to time win the Relay. Races are over 50m but we may run a shorter distance race if there is any interest. The water does not start getting cold until late May so why not join us at least until then. No additional payment is required for those registered for Summer swimming.

Club Championships

In order to qualify for Championship Selection, you must swim over 5 separate weeks no later than 4 January 2026. For Age and Senior Championships, you also need to swim in that stroke once this season. Although championship distances are set for each age group and event, you do not have to swim that distance to be selected. Open and Junior Championship are over 100m except for Butterfly which will be over 50m. Those qualifying for Open and Junior Championship selection must have swum at least once at this distance to be selected. Please see the Information for Members booklet for full rules.

WASA Carnivals

WASA holds several carnivals during the season – mostly for Junior Swimmers. Membership includes capitation to WASA. The events are usually held at the Warringah Aquatic Centre. There is a small fee for each event and competitors and spectators will need to pay to enter the Centre. Mary Houten is the co-ordinator for these carnivals and can be contacted at collaroyswim@gmail.com. The WASA link is at the bottom of this page. The first carnival will be held on 1 November 2025 at the Warringah Aquatic Centre commencing at 4.30pm.

Being financial

Swimmers/families must pay their membership within 2 weeks of commencing swimming.
Swimming points will be awarded and eligibility for championship swims will be accrued from day 1 with 2 ‘grace’ weeks. Should fees not be paid within the first 2 weeks of swimming, swimming points will not be allocated, and eligibility for championships will not accrue until the date of payment. Swimmers/families do not have to return on the first day of swimming season. The rule applies from the first day of your return to swimming.
