Membership & Training

Membership 2025

The first session is Free!


Thereafter each session costs £5 (£6 for Senior Water Polo Players).


After approximately three more sessions you will be asked to “join” the club. By that time you should know whether you enjoy it or not.


Membership is for a calendar year (Jan to Dec) and cost £45 payable by Cash Card or BACS. The clubs bank details are on the membership form. There is a reduction to £25 if joining in October November or December. It is Free if you are a current member of a Swim England affiliated club.
That fee covers affiliation to the Dorset County the South West Region and Swim England.


You will need to complete a Membership form. When you have joined you will be asked to pay the session fees by “Direct Debit” and provided with the appropriate form.
That reduces the session fee to £4 a time. (£5 a time for Senior Polo players).Taken once a month at £16. (Senior Polo players £20) None is taken in August and December to allow for the break in club nights.
Until that is completed and up and running the fee stays at £5 (£6 for Senior Polo layers) payable per Club Night. Any problems speak to us.


Club nights run in School term time so if there is a School Holiday we take a break too.


Note. There is no extra charge for those who take part in the Senior Polo practise or game on a Tuesday evening.
