Our current pool timetabled sessions are still operating as bookable swim sessions which have a maximum capacity. Each session is limited to 20 swimmers and can be booked via the Brookes Sport app or web Book Online portal. Where possible, please continue to arrive "Beach Ready" and Shower Dress and Exit promptly after your swim to help in limiting the occupancy of changing rooms at any given time.
Due to limited numbers in the pool, ALL swimmers aged 5 years and over will need to be registered and booked onto a swim session - this includes children who have not been required to register in the past. Under 5's who swim for free, do not need to be registered and are exempt from booking. Please click here to register swimmers aged 5+.
