Swimming

The GDSC Swimming Club was formed in the mid 1970's and has operated since that time.

For a short time only - the swimming club is offering to pay gate entry to the pool for the first 3 weeks attendance, so that you can see how it works.  Offer is open to anyone over 18 years of age.

ALL swims are on handicap times, with the emphasis on having some fun, conversation and competition whilst getting some exercise.

The club swims each Tuesday at 6.00pm throughout the year, summer in the Grafton Olympic Pool and winter in the South Grafton heated indoor pool.  The program consists of heats of a 50 metre freestyle, 30 metre freestyle and a 30 metre form-stroke (backstroke, breaststroke or butterfuly), with finals for the 3 events following.

The program generally takes no more than an hour, so we're finished by 7.00pm.

The swimming club also puts on a free BBQ and refreshments after the swim back at the GDSC rotunda on the first Tuesday of each month.  Club members also travel to various carnivals 2 or 3 times a year.

When you decide to join the swimming club, you do have to become a member of the GDSC.
