Welcome

We request that you pre-book your swimming session

Welcome to the Mount Kelly Swim Centre. We have 2 indoor swimming pools with changing facilities. The Olympic Legacy 50m Pool features 8 lanes, Olympic starting blocks, underwater 5m sprint markings and a Pool Pod to assist with accessibility. We also have a 4 lane, 25m pool which is suitable for those learning to swim. Both pools have anti-wave lane lines. All sessions have lifeguards in attendance. We also offer free parking.

We look forward to welcoming you here at the Swim Centre for your next swimming session.

TIMETABLE

We are open to the public daily for open lane swimming sessions in either the 50m or 25m pools. We also offer the Swim England children’s ‘Learn to Swim’ programme, a Fun Swim with floats, a Gentle Senior Swim or our Masters Swim sessions.

We also provide many courses, classes and events, including the ever popular Swim School, a technical training camp for competitive swimmers; School holiday Crash Courses; our Adult Beginners/Improvers weekly course; Aquarobics; Lifeguard training and charity events such as the Swimathon.

Please note we will be closed on Bank Holiday Monday 25 May 2026 and that the Public Lane Swimming Session on Saturday 6 June has been moved from 1400-1600 to 1500 -1700 to allow us to host the Mount Kelly Swimming Scholarship Assessment Day.
