Derwentside and Gateshead Swim Team

Driven — Determined — Disciplined


At D&G Swim Team, we believe swimming is about so much more than times and medals. It's about building confidence, resilience, discipline and friendships that last a lifetime. Whether you're taking your first steps into competitive swimming or striving for national success, we're here to help every swimmer become the very best version of themselves.

We celebrate personal bests as much as podium finishes, helping every swimmer develop the skills, character and confidence to succeed both in the water and beyond.


"Joining D&G has been one of the best decisions we've made. The club has the rare combination of being genuinely welcoming while also providing an environment where swimmers challenge and support each other every day. Watching someone rediscover their enjoyment of swimming while achieving things at the highest level was something they never thought possible and has been incredible."
