Derwentside and Gateshead Swim Team

D&G is a performance-focused club with a proven record of developing swimmers to national level, including regular British Championships qualifiers. We train hard, we expect commitment, and we get results. If that's the environment you're looking for, we'd love to hear from you.

All of our athletes started right back a the beginning of the Learn to Swim Programme, just like the one that we offer here at D&G. Our programme gives beginners the foundations they need, water confidence, technique, and a love of the sport. From there, the pathway is clear. Swimmers who show drive and dedication can progress through our junior squads all the way to national finals and beyond.

Whatever stage you or your child is at, there is a place for you here.
