Who we are

The Northcote Swimming and Life Saving Club is a community-based club with swimmers ranging in age from 5 to 23 years. We are based at the Northcote Aquatic and Recreation Centre (located in Victoria Road) and use the indoor 25m pool, as well as the outdoor heated 50m pool.

What kind of swimmers do we cater for?

We cater for a variety of swimmers; from advanced learn to swim, junior, senior, district, state and national level competition. We have many squads of differing abilities. Competition is not compulsory, however, it is greatly encouraged. Our swimmers enjoy training together and make strong friendships within and across age groups. They develop new skills, take up challenges and maintain a healthy attitude in a supportive atmosphere.

Want to try out for Squad?

Try-outs are a great opportunity for friends, siblings etc to try out for Squad also. Swimmers in YMCA learn-to-swim program who have reached Eel level or higher may be suitable.

Try-out sessions are held periodically. If you are interested please contact the Club via the ntc.swimming@gmail.com email address.

We will place try-out swimmers with the squad which is most suited to their age level and swimming experience. A try-out swimmer would participate for up to 30 minutes which gives the coach time to assess their current swimming skills and suitability for one of the squads.
