Bellbowrie Bullsharks - Just Add Water!
Bellbowrie Swimming Club is a volunteer run orgatisation, providing the opportunity for swimmers to experience a weekly race format in a friendly and supportive environment. Our Friday club nights include all four strokes swum over distances of 15m, 25m and 50m, as well as a 100m event of any stroke and a mixed age/ ability relay. Swimmers compete to earn points based on individual improvement in times. We also host an annual Championship night towards the end of the season, where swimmers compete in age groups for medals based on place.
Our Principles
We ask all members and families of Bellbowrie Swimming Club to support us in upholding these princples:
Safety First: The safety of our swimmers is our top priority. This includes creating a safe space for children to enjoy swimming, and respecting the Bellbowrie Swimming Pool rules that ensure physical safety for everyone in and around the pool on club nights.
Friday Night Fun: Friday night competitions are designed to be fun and low-stress. We prioritise participation over winning and use these events as opportunities for swimmers to showcase their progress and enjoy friendly competition.
Respect and Inclusion: Our club is a place where everyone is treated with respect and kindness. We celebrate diversity and encourage inclusivity, ensuring that all swimmers and families feel valued and welcomed.
Family Support: Parents are a crucial part of our swim club community. We ask parents to provide unwavering support, volunteer at club nights when possible, and create a positive atmosphere by cheering for all swimmers.
Communication and Feedback: Open and respectful communication is key. We encourage parents to communicate with the committee, ask questions, and provide feedback to help us continually improve the club experience for all.
