What is Aireborough Swimming Club?

Updated

Aireborough Swimming Club is a community swimming club based at Aireborough Leisure Centre in Guiseley (The Green, Guiseley, LS20 9BT). It has been running since 1967 and describes itself as offering "no faff, just good honest training." It welcomes both children and adults, from beginners finding their feet (or fins) to swimmers chasing personal bests and podiums, and it is a Swim Mark accredited club operating under published governance policies.

What the club offers

The club positions itself as "more than just swimming lessons." Its stated aims cover four broad areas:

  • Learn to swim – for those starting out
  • Improve swimming strokes – technique development
  • Swim competitively – training for competition
  • Keep fit – swimming for general fitness

The club explicitly says "young and old alike, all are welcome," so it is not limited to junior swimmers.

Governance and club records

The club operates within governance policies that are published on its governance page, and it maintains records of results and club records. This matters if you are looking for a club with formal structure rather than an informal training group — useful when comparing options for a competitive swimmer.

Recent activity

The club's news page shows it runs internal and external events, including:

  • Rising Stars Spring Gala 2026 (25 April 2026)
  • March 2026 Time Trial Results
  • Small pool availability updates (February 2026)

These suggest an active calendar of galas, time trials, and pool scheduling notices, which is typical of a club that supports both development and competitive pathways.

Other pages worth checking

The site also covers events, a calendar, meet times, welfare, results, club records, club contacts, volunteering, and clubwear. If your question is about a specific swimmer's progress, welfare, or volunteering, those sections are the relevant starting points rather than the homepage.
