March 1, 2022
After a long break, the Swim For a Mile season is back and well under way! If you have already signed up for the indoor challenge event we have a range of training times available to help you prepare for the Mile.
If you have not yet signed up, there is still time! We encourage swimmers of all abilities to take part in the challenge, with our mantra ‘If you can swim 2 lengths comfortably, we will get you to the mile!’. We want to encourage as many people across Ireland to dive back into the challenge in 2022 and improve their water confidence and swimming efficiency!
No pool near you for training? No worries! Remember that you can download the weekly training programme from your SFAM dashboard, just click “Training Programmes” and select your desired week and format!
We have a host of super handy demonstration videos, showing you how to perform drills, kicks and stroke’s! Check out our youtube playlist here!
With most participating pools starting training in March, now is the perfect opportunity to sign up and enjoy the preparation surrounded by a group of people all on the same mission!
We are delighted to announce that our famous technique clinics with Melanie Nocher will take place over the weekends of March 25th, April 16th and May 21st with bookings for the March clinics opening very soon!
If you cannot see your local SFAM pool below, we will continue to add training times and days as they are confirmed so be sure to keep an eye on your inbox!
