Pool Training
Dress and Behaviour
Swimmers should dress in swimming kit suitable for competitive swimming – no bikinis or board shorts!
Please remember that the club often shares the pool and its facilities with the general public. Please be courteous and allow the public through first, and leave the public with the opinion of a really nice swim club – this isn’t our leisure centre although many of us may feel like we spend more time here than at our homes.
Once the training session is over, please leave the poolside promptly – the general public rightly expects to be able to get in the pool when their session begins, and not have club swimmers playing about. If you can help with packing equipment away (lane ropes, dive blocks) then this is really appreciated.
Dryland Warmup Routines
A good warmup is key to preventing injury.
Squad Training Times
Squad training times are detailed against the swimmer’s squad on Swim Manager, found on the Squad Pages. This is being updated to correct inaccuracies.
Land Training
Land training is carried out at TFD Fitness, and plays a key part in building the core strength of swimmers, enabling them to swim faster.
Dress and Behaviour
TFD is a private Fitness club, which again is shared with paying members – please be as courteous as you are at the leisure centre, and leave TFD’s members with a really high opinion of WWHSC.
Land Training clothing should be a t-shirt and either shorts or tracksuit bottoms. Please remember that swimmers from age 10 to adult will attend and ensure that t-shirt slogans are appropriate for that audience.
TFD supplies all of the equipment, just bring yourself, a towel if you prefer, and a water bottle.
