City of Oxford Swimming Club

Craig Oliver would like to welcome all swimmers to the City of Oxford Swimming Club. He’s thrilled to share the opportunities on offer for swimmers of all ages and abilities.

For those just getting their feet wet, the club's Learn to Swim lessons provide a safe and inclusive environment. Experienced instructors focus on building water confidence and teaching essential skills.

If competition is your aim, Craig and his team have multi-tier programmes designed for fitness, competition, and high-performance levels. The club’s expert coaches offer personalised coaching, helping each swimmer achieve their goals. Competitive swimmers also get to participate in various local and regional competitions, proudly representing the club.

For adults, there’s the Masters programme. It's ideal for those seeking quality training and coaching, with the added benefit of masters events and competitions.

The club is dedicated to promoting swimming across Oxfordshire. Affiliated with Swim England and Oxon and North Bucks Counties, and recognised with a SwimMark accreditation, the club maintains high standards of governance and effectiveness.

The club's activities are based at two excellent facilities: Leys Pool and Leisure Centre and Oxford High School. Both are easily accessible and well-equipped.

Craig, the Head Coach, brings over 20 years of experience and a passion for fostering inclusivity and growth. He views the club as a family united by their love for swimming.
