At Sports Generation your child can start swimming from 3 months old and they can continue their swimming journey with us until they are 13 years old.
Sports Generation prides itself on the quality of coaches they have and their ability to manage all levels of swimmer appropriately, whether they are a baby who has never been in the water before, a nervous non-swimmer or a fledging improver swimmer hoping to make the school swim team.
