Seniors

Sundays: 18:00-19:00

 The Clubs senior section brings together a variety of individuals from all ages and backgrounds. There are several ways that senior members can train and maintain their Lifesaving skills and competencies. Firstly members can train on a Sunday evening from 19:00 - 20:00 at the pool, where they are able to maintain their fitness levels and practice a variety of practical lifesaving techniques in order to maintain being competent. Training sessions are tailored to different levels of swimming ability.

​

Alternatively members are able and encouraged to train on Wednesday evenings at Sankey Marina, where throughout the year there is a vast amount of nationally/internationally recognised rewards available such as:

​

• SLSGB Inland Lifeguard

• SLSGB First Responder/ First Aid
