WELCOME TO

Passionate about developing and encouraging all our swimmers to reach their full potential.

KIA ORA, WE'RE WAITAHA

At Waitaha Swim Club we're passionate about developing and encouraging all our swimmers to reach ​their full potential.

Our squads cater for competitive swimmers of all ages - from our beginner Waiau (mini) squad through to our Aoraki national and international competitive squad.

 

If you're interested in hearing more about what we can offer we'd be delighted to have a chat and show you around our facility at 25 Charente Way, Yaldhurst, Christchurch. Or you can  contact us here.
