Do show up 15 minutes early for changing. After the training most members stay for a drink and a chat. A couple of times a year we also organize special events like BBQ on the beach and special dinners.
If you like to see whether the club might be fun for you too, we offer a free trial training. Simply show up and inform the member behind the desk you are there. Thereafter, if you still haven't decided whether you want to become a member or not, you can swim with us 5 more times and pay €4,- per training. Ask for a subscribtion form if you want to join the club or download it here. You can hand over this registration form to the administrator in the hallway of the pool before every training.
More info? Give us a call or send us an e-mail and click contact. We hope to see you soon.
Membership for training once a week costs €48,40 quarterly. Training twice a week costs €72,60 quarterly and three times a week costs €96,80 quarterly. Choosing a day during the week is up to you. Want to train more often? That's possible by paying €4,- per training.
