Swim 21

Walsall Swimming and Water Polo Club have been awarded Swim 21 Accreditation for Swimming at Skill Development Level by the Amateur Swimming Association

What is Swim 21?

Swim 21 is the ASA's Club Development model - a planning tool, based on the principles of Long Term Athlete Development, enabling clubs to help athletes, teachers, coaches and administrators to achieve their full potential. It focuses particularly on the needs of athletes - striving to provide them with the best possible support and environment.
Swim 21 Accreditation is a 'Quality mark'. It recognises nationally and regionally the clubs that are committed to providing safe, effective and quality services for the benefit of their members.
Clubs work steadily towards the attainment of a series of outcomes all of which are seen as essential if the right level of support is to be provided at each stage of an athlete's development.

Clubmark

Clubmark is a Sport England accreditation scheme, which will eventually be accessible to all sports and seeks to ensure that young people are participating within a safe and friendly environment. Swim 21 is recognised by Sport England as a Clubmark accredited scheme and therefore all clubs gaining Swim 21 Accreditation will automatically receive Clubmark status.
