Description
Welcome to the University of Bradford Swimming Club! If you are looking to join a sport on campus this one is for you! We welcome a range of abilities to the Barracudas with a minimum requirement of swimming a continuous 50m on your front and 50m on your back in less than 2 minutes and 15 seconds. We tailor our training sessions to suit all abilities so whether you are a newer of more experienced swimmer you'll fit right in!
A great way to keep fit, swimming is one of the only non-weight-bearing sports and uses every muscle group and improves co-ordination. We at the University of Bradford have two sessions a week to help us improve our technique and power and our performance at our competitions.
Twice a year we compete at BUCS nationals, a weekend long international style competition with a complete Olympic programme of events in Sheffield, where we compete against other university swim clubs, as well as smaller style galas at Varsity and local friendlies.
Training Times:
- Tuesday 7:00pm - 8:30pm
- Sunday 1:30pm - 2:30pm
Be sure to join us at the Freshers Fayre, to gain an insight into our club and meet the exec team! We will hopefully see you soon at training, but if you have any questions or want to get involved with the club, you can get in contact with us on social media or via email.
