Within just two years, swimmers were participating in the County Championships and earning medals. By the third year, swimmers were qualifying for the South-West Regional Championships.

In the fourth year, the club had national standard swimmers and even made it to the A final of the Cotswold League. In the 2003/2004 season, the club was runners up in the Cotswold League and made it to the A final of the Speedo League.

In 2005, Nigel Garraway took over as head coach, and although there were challenges such as the closure of Brockworth Sports Centre, the club managed to prevail and continue its operations. Thanks to the dedication and perseverance of everyone involved, the club remained strong and eventually reopened in February 2007.
