All About Competitive Swimming

Hi all


Pls advise me where to purchase thermal swimwear for kids? (Not thru online purchase)

Thank you.

You can get thermal swimwear from any swimwear stores, including but not limited to Arena, or other general kids store like Kiddy Palace. But to me online purchase is better, more variety and cheaper. Check out Amazon.

Hi there.

The best centre nearest to Clementi would be Jurong Country Club.

The head coach is Mr Zhao Yi from Qingdao, China.
He is a graduate from Beijing University in Sports Science, and represented China for the 1996 Olympics.

Next would be at United World College, under Swimlab.

The head coach is a Hungarian former national swimmer. I'm not sure about his credential though. You may wish to go and visit both venue to have a trial before deciding.

My 2 kids (P6 & P4) are training at JCC. Both went into finals for the Primary School National Championship. Feel free to drop me a line. They provide 2 free trial training.

Do explore all venues as each child's preference is different.

ENJOY!!!!

Thanks for the lobang, SWIMDAD.


Just wish to announce that Jurong Country Club is recruiting competitive swimmers - ideally from P2 to P4.

Non-members can join as well.

They have 4 lanes allotted for the squad. There’s also a few up and coming age group talent to look out in the nest few years. The Coach was a former Olympian representing China. In terms of quality, I dare say it is on par with many of the top swim clubs.

Feel free to arrange 1 or 2 trial session to see if your child is comfortable with the environment and the group.

This would be convenient for those staying in the western part of Singapore.

* Note that I am not receiving any profit or commission. My 2 kids have been training there for 3 years and I really feel it is value for $$$.
