IT'S YOUR TIME TO SHINE

The club has a tremendous reliance on its members to fulfill volunteering roles that ensure the continued operation of the club and the delivery of swimming and water polo to Bradford on Avon and the surrounding areas.  Roles are available in a host of different areas; management committee, poolside volunteers, coaches, teachers, officials, social, fundraising, supplier management and many others.

Have a look below and see if there is anything that you can do, please don't rely on others or think that if somebody else is already doing it, your not needed.  We adopt the 'many hands makes light work' principle.  More information is available in the club documents section of the website and by clicking the links you'll be taken to the Swim England role descriptions.
