Welcome to AUSWPC – Aberdeen University’s Swimming and Water Polo Club!
Housed at Aberdeen Sports Village (ASV), one of the country’s finest sporting facilities, we providemultiple sessions of swimming and water polo every week – all for one singular membership price! You can come to as many or as few as you want, across one or both disciplines, to fit in with your own commitments! Our membership includes a Scottish Swimming Membership from September to March (if you don't have one already!).
As one of the larger clubs (over 120 members last year!) on campus, we provide a fun and friendly environment for a broad range of ability – from those who are just getting into the sport through to experienced, competitive athletes. However, ASV requires all members are able to complete 50m of a recognisble stroke + tread water for 30s, this is due to the risks of deep water, if this concerns you then ASV offer adult swimming lessons (please contact them directly)!
Focused on competition? Our Connect programme provides a dedicated training plan to optimise for this. And for those at the top of the sport, we are linked with the UoA Performance Programme!
We enter swim teams into both the BUSL and SSS leagues, and travel down to Sheffield for BUCS short and long course! Similarly, we have both Men’s and Women’s Water Polo teams entered in the BUCS league – with a range of matches both home and away to hone your skills!
Apart from training, we also have a busy social calendar throughout the year – starting off with the famous white t-shirt night. Our social calender includes: quizzes, sponsored runs (in our swim gear!), nights out, karaoke, and much more!
We also allow non-students to train with us, so if you would like to keep your fitness up feel free to purchase a membership!
