FOR MANY YEARS, Monnow Swimming

Club has been providing a safe

and challenging environment in

which young people can develop their

swimming. Its members include children

from Monmouthshire, Herefordshire

and Gloucestershire, providing

them with training to improve their

strokes, build stamina and strength

and forge friendships. The club offers

up to 6 nights a week of pool time,

split between the excellent facilities at

Monmouth Boys' and Haberdasher's

Girls' schools.

There have been a lot of changes

recently at Monnow Swimming Club,

with the introduction of a squad based

training system which allows swimmers

of similar abilities to train

together and spur one another on,

under the watch of the qualified

coaches and pool side staff.
