Swim Club Affiliations

Morningside Flyers Swim Club

Come and enjoy a total swimming experience in a family-oriented environment with the Morningside Flyers Swim Club. The Morningside Flyers caters for learner swimmers right up to those capable of swimming a 200m individual medley, and works in close cooperation with Hampton Swim School to provide a great way to improve and develop a child’s swimming in a safe and welcoming environment. The season runs from October to April with the club meeting every Tuesday night from 5.45pm.

Children do not have to be great swimmers to enjoy the benefits of our swim club, and the emphasis of the club is placed heavily on the child striving to achieve their personal best times. Dinner is available from the BBQ and the canteen which operate every club night.

The club participates in a number of “mini-meet carnivals” with other local clubs during the season, and hosts the premier “Southside Carnival” in November each year.

For a guaranteed great family night out, come FLY WITH THE FLYERS!
