If you want to try out our club you can call anyone on our contacts page and they will suggest a free trial session for you to attend.

What are the costs?

Our fees range from $120 to $210 per swimmer during summer season and they can swim up to five sessions a week. During the winter training season, the fees are set at a different rate due to the lane hire at the Richmond Aquatic Centre. There is a 10% discount for two or more siblings from the same family.

Current Fees for Summer 2025/26:

  • Gold – $210 (swim up to 8 Hours a week)
  • Silver – $210 (swim up to 4.5 Hours a week)
  • Bronze – $180 (swim up to 2.25 hours a week)
  • Copper – $160 (swim up to 1.5hrs a week)

Please note that due to less pool space in winter, priority will be given to competitive swimmers who need to train all year round. Club swimmers are welcome to swim in winter if there is pool space available.

The training fees are payable up front. If this is difficult for you at this time, then please contact our treasurer to arrange payment by instalments. The email address is: waimeaswimclubtreasurer@gmail.com.

The club bank account number is:
Westpac: Waimea Swimming Club 03 0751 0185659 00.

Please email our treasurer when you have made your payment so she can check you off the list.

There is also an annual fee for all swimmers that we are required to charge by Swimming New Zealand. For club swimmers this is currently $20.00, and $106.50 for competitive swimmers. This allows the swimmer to compete in competitions from 01 July – 30 June.
