Swimming Coaching

Wednesday 6th June 2012

Thursday 7th June 2012

Friday 8th June 2012 

Bedford Modern 5:45pm-6:45pm

 

 

 

Why is it running?

The swimming coaching sessions are primarily aimed at identifying young swimmers with the potential to progress with their swimming and provide the pathway to competitive swimming by linking with Bedford’s premier swimming club, Modernian SC. It is a ‘link’ between swimming lessons and the next step in their development into competitive swimming (the local club).
