When are they on?
Held each Friday evening from September to March at the Lismore Memorial Baths, club nights are very family-friendly events, with delicious food from the barbecue and great camaraderie.
Swimmers should be at the pool ready to sign on at 5.30pm each week so that racing can commence at 6pm.
2017-2018 Season
Unfortunately the Memorial Baths suffered major damage in the March flooding and it still has not been repaired. At this stage it appears that it could be as late as early December before the pool reopens and our club nights can resume.
Grading
For club nights, swimmers are graded into divisions according to their ability. They can be in different divisions for different strokes. Generally new swimmers start in division 3 and progress to division 2 as their skills and times improve and then on to division 1.
