Subscription fees
For fees as from September 2010, please click here.
Club membership fees include a swimmer's ASA membership fee, which ensures that you have adequate insurance cover for activities that you undertake with the club, or as an individual, for instance at an Open Meet.
Fees for Junior Performance, Seniors and Masters also include summer swimming sessions as swimming will continue throughout the year for the performance squads with the following breaks: a 2-week Christmas break; a 1-week Easter break; and a 1-week break in August to coincide with Bryanston Swim School.
As from September 2010, the club committee has introduced a payment option of monthly standing order, as proposed at the Parent meeting held on 5th July 2010. The committee hopes that as many parents/carers as possible will choose to adopt this payment method as it will reduce the large queues that tend to form at the club desk in the first few weeks of each term. It also allows parents/carers to spread the cost over the year. Alternatively, fees can still be paid at the beginning of each term, or in the case of the performance squads, at the beginning of each quarter. For a standing order form, please click here.

In addition to club membership fees, swimmers who choose to compete will also pay entry fees for open meets and county events at which they elect to swim.
- Once the club has submitted swimmers' entries for a competition, the club is obliged to pay all fees even if a swimmer does not attend.
- Therefore, when a swimmer submits an entry form for a competition they will be expected to pay the cost of their entry to the club even if they do not attend the competition.
The club committee has decided, reluctantly, that if payment is not made by a swimmer then the committee will have to review that swimmer's future participation in swimming competitions and their future with the club. Any non-payment of entry fees leads to an additional financial burden which has to be borne by the other members of the club. In exceptional circumstances, such as injury, it may be possible to reclaim fees from a competition's organiser and reimburse a swimmer. These cases will be dealt with on an individual basis.
