Melton Swimming Club is a renowned sports club located in Melton, Victoria. The club offers two distinct memberships – Swimming Australia affiliated membership and Masters Swimming Australia affiliated membership. Swimmers over the age of 18 have the option to register under both affiliations if desired.
The club welcomes swimmers of all ages, starting from 6 years old, who have developed competency in their chosen strokes and can complete competition distances. Their members hail from various suburbs in the Melton City and Bacchus Marsh, as well as neighbouring municipalities.
The primary objective of Melton Swimming Club is to provide a friendly and inclusive environment where swimmers of all ages can compete and participate at various levels, including club, district, state, national, and international competitions. Unlike some other clubs, Melton Swimming Club does not offer learn to swim or squad training programmes. Therefore, they have the flexibility to accept members from any training background. The only requirement is that if a swimmer is not part of the Melton Waves training squads, their coach must be willing to allow the Club's coaches to guide and represent them at competitions that require Club affiliation for pool deck access.
The mission of the Melton Swimming Club is to provide swimmers, irrespective of their skill levels, with opportunities to compete in a highly encouraging environment that rewards achievement and encourages active participation. They aim to help swimmers reach their full potential by organising swimming events that enable qualification for state and national competitions. The club also offers guidance and support through the swimming network in the Metro West District, catering to the needs of coaches, captains, and team managers. Furthermore, they provide various programmes that assist swimmers in meeting their individual goals.
Melton Swimming Club encourages swimming participation among people residing in Melton and the surrounding areas. They pride themselves in providing teams for swimmers of all ages and abilities, making it a perfect place to embark on a swimming journey or further develop existing skills.
