It is extremely difficult to secure pool time for teaching and training in London. There are simply not enough pools that are rented to clubs at times appropriate to young swimmers who are growing and have homework and who often attend other sports and activities. CSC has always worked extremely hard to secure pool time that saves children from late training sessions. These early sessions are hard to get but by being both tenacious and patient the club has put together the best timetable it can that also allows swimmers and families to lead a balanced life. As pools become available, as swimmers get older and more dedicated and their training requirements increase the club will ensure that they have all the swimming time they need to develop to their full ability.
It is impossible to design a schedule that will satisfy all families at all times and the club will continue to monitor this programme to ensure that it works as well as it can.
