Welcome Week
Welcome to our Heriot-Watt Sports Union. Throughout the week, we will host club tasters & wellbeing activities for you to get involved with for free! Try new sports & engage with our amazing community across the week.
Come and join the Heriot-Watt Swimming Club!
Join us for an exciting swimming taster session open to all skill levels, designed to give you a feel for what our club sessions are like. The session will be split into two parts:
Swimming Practice: The first half will focus on swimming technique and drills, giving you a taste of what our regular training sessions will be like. Whether you're a beginner or have some swimming experience, you'll be guided by our coaches to help you improve your skills.
Fun Team-Building Activities: The second half will be more light-hearted and fun, featuring team-based activities like relays. This will give you a chance to meet and connect with other swimmers, including existing members and fellow newcomers, while also getting a taste of the vibrant social side of the club .
What do I need to bring?
Please bring a towel, swimwear, goggles, and optionally a swimcap. We recommend bringing some water – no equipment required, though you can bring your own kickboard. Please be aware that we will be leaving the campus at 7:30 pm, so please arrive by then to travel to the venue.
We can't wait to meet you all! Should you have any questions at all please DM us on instagram @hwswimteam or email swimming@hw.ac.uk
