Oswestry Otters

Welcome to Oswestry Otters Swimming Club

Oswestry Otters ASC gives a warm welcome to your interest in our club.

We provide a safe and fun environment for our members to stay fit. Being a competitive swimmer helps builds self-discipline and self-confidence which in turn helps them achieve their goal and dreams in the world of swimming.

The ideal time to start swim training is when a child has passed the Swim England National Learn to Swim, Stage 7. We welcome all ages to the program but any new swimmer is expected to be able to comfortably swim within an hour 1500 metres from ages 7-11 and over 3000 metres for 12 years and over.

Training with Oswestry Otters has delivered great successes for its swimmers including

– Swimmmers completing at British, English and Welsh National Championships, making finals, medalling and a National Champion.

– Swimmers compete at the National and Regional Open Water Championships.

– Many swimmers qualifying for the Shropshire County Championships, winning many medals

– Competing in “Diddy” league and Arena league divisional finals.
