Many of our club offer courses have zero spaces available, this may be because the club development officer has reserved these places for clubs in your region.

To enquire about availability, contact your relevant club development officer whose details will be in the course information or email clubdevelopment@swimming.org. Once your place is confirmed you will receive a voucher enabling you to book on.

Want to host a Swim England Assistant Coach course at your club?

To provide a quality learning experience and develop coaching skills, it’s important that your club has access to appropriate facilities and the right level swimmers.
