Welcome to Stamford Bridge Community Pool, located at Stamford Bridge Junior School in York. Owned by PACT (Parents and Carers Together) and managed by a dedicated team of volunteers, the pool relies on donations, grants, fundraising, and pool usage to fund its operations and remain open for the community. We greatly appreciate the support from our loyal supporters and the community, as it costs over 100 per day to keep the pool open.
Stamford Bridge Community Pool is fortunate to be a part of a vibrant village with a strong sense of community spirit. We offer private hire and open swim sessions, as well as partnering with swim schools. We kindly ask all pool users to shower before entering the pool, which is a common practise to rinse off any substances that could affect the chlorine levels, such as deodorant and sweat. For those with baby swimmers, please ensure you use new and clean nappies during this time of shortage.
Currently, we run adult swim sessions on Tuesdays from 7-8pm and family swim sessions on Sundays from 2-3pm. Prebooking is essential and can be done via email at info@sbcpool. Org. We now accept both cash and card/chip and pin payments.
