If you wish to join a water based Sports Club (canoe, rowing, sailing, surf, windsurf & triathlon) then you are required to complete a swim test.

This swim test will consist of 3 elements:

100m continuous swim within 5 minutes (2 lengths of the STV Pool) Tread Water in an upright position for 5 minutes immediately after the swim completion  Exit The Water via the plinth at the end of the pool (This is a raised side)

 

Participants are not permitted to wear goggles (With the exception of those with contact lenses)

If you have any questions regarding the swim test then please contact subathsport@bath.ac.uk

All participants will be assessed by an assessor, who will then notify you if you have passed or failed.

Spaces are limited so please Sign Ups early to avoid dissapointment. Clubs will be running their own swim tests throughout the year so if you miss this one, you will still be able to complete the swim test by contacting the relavent sports club. We will only have 2 lanes of the swimming pool, so other users will be in the pool at the same time. 

All participants must wear shorts and t-shirt for the whole duration of the test and will be required to sign in with SU Staff on arrival at the poolside
