It's Volunteer Week — and we couldn't let it pass without celebrating the amazing people who make CSWPC what it is!

Behind every race, every goal, every training session; there's a dedicated team of volunteers working tirelessly behind the scenes.

To our incredible Coaches, Team Managers, finance & admin team, and officials across both our Swim and Water Polo sections —
THANK YOU. ❤️

The hours you give go far beyond what most people will ever see or know.
Early mornings, late nights, weekends, planning, organising, officiating; you do it all, and you do it with passion. Without you, there simply is no CSWPC.

🥉 What a day at the SJDL Final in Coventry on Saturday!!
Despite some last-minute challenges, our swimmers pulled together brilliantly climbing from 6th to finish 3rd, just 6 points off the top spot.

Huge shoutout to Toby 'The Pocket Rocket' Moore for stepping up to swim 9 events, and to our captains Duygu and Bertram for leading from the front.

PBs, first-place relays, tutus, and karaoke on the way home that's a wrap on this year's SJDL journey!

A massive thank you to coaches Dan, Ross and Rob & Paul, our officials, Team Managers, and Jo Caddy for all the behind-the-scenes coordination none of this happens without you! 🙌

Next stop: Club Champs on the 27th and 28th June.

🌊✨ What an incredible evening at the Cheltenham & District Primary Schools Swimming Gala 2026! ✨🌊

Last night, CSWPC and the amazing team at Leisure@ had the privilege of welcoming 17 primary schools, around 200 Year 5 and Year 6 swimmers, supported by over 120 cheering parents for a truly memorable night of competitive swimming.

The atmosphere was electric from start to finish, with every school bringing their competitive spirit and their voices! 📣 It was a wonderful reminder of what community sport is all about celebrating swimming, nurturing young talent, and bringing people together.

A huge congratulations to every single swimmer who took part last night. You should all be incredibly proud not just of your swimming, but of your team spirit and the way you represented your schools. A true credit to your teachers, parents, and yourselves. 🏊‍♀️🏊‍♂️

💙 Thank you to all 17 schools for joining us.
💙 Thank you to the fantastic staff Leisureat cheltenham for their support.
💙 And the biggest thank you of all to our incredible army of CSWPC volunteers this event simply wouldn't happen without your dedication and hard work.

We already can't wait for next year! 🗓️

⭐️Making it to Regionals is a huge achievement in itself, and you should all be very proud.⭐️

There were lots of highs, challenges and learning moments across the weekend, and what shone through was the resilience and passion from our CSWPC swimmers.
Throughout the weekend the swimmers put in excellent performances and were rewarded with a number of big personal bests.

Special mention goes to Savannah Wright:

•Qualified for two finals
•In the 100 Breaststroke, she went into the final ranked 7th and produced another PB to finish 2nd, narrowly missing gold by just 0.2 seconds and securing her first Regional medal

•In the 200 Breaststroke, she achieved a huge PB in the heats to go into the final as 2nd seed, then improved again with another PB in the final, finishing 4th, just outside the medals

An outstanding set of achievements; well done, Savannah!

Thank you to our awesome Team Manager Kerry who was a constant support for our swimmers over Regionals, and also our incredible coaches Dan, Rich and Karl for their support and encourgament over the events!

Training plans already getting worked on for 2027 Regionals!!💪🏻⭐️🔥

⭐️Another awesome weekend for our swim section ⭐️

We had club representation for the first time in the SE Para championship that was running in parallel with the SW regional event. Lance Fowler competed in the S14 category in both 200m FC and 50FC and put together two great swims that provide a solid foundation for years to come.

Also swimming this weekend was Charley Longland who broke through to the Youth Regionals this Bank Holiday Monday, competing in the 50m breaststroke. Travelling on his own, he showed real commitment and determination.

Seeded 19th in his age group, Charley had a big task ahead of him. He swam a great race, just missing out on a personal best but successfully holding his seed position. A fantastic performance that showed great spirit and resilience.

Well done Lance and Charley! 💪🏻
