ApplicationsAnyone wishing to be considered for membership of Sevenoaks Swimming Club must complete an application form. Applicants for the swimming section of the Club will then be invited to attend one of the regular trials, generally held once a term. All applicants must be at least six years of age at the time of the trial. Applicants should reached a minimum standard equivalent to that of Level & of the ASA's National Teaching Plan for Swimming (NPTS) i.e.: be able to swim legs only with efficient leg action for front crawl, back crawl and Breaststroke, and be able to swim 25m of the three strokes with basic technique. In addition, swimmers should be capable of doing a variety of other skills i.e.: jump in the water in a variety of ways and climb out unaided: surface dive: swim 5m underwater: forward somersault from a push and glide: scull both head-first and feet first. Full details of the NPTS levels and stroke descriptions can be found on the website. Swimmers who are nine years and under in the year of the trial, will be asked to demonstrate three strokes to a basic standard over a distance of 25meters each. Swimmers who will be ten years or older during the year of the trial will demonstrate each stroke to an efficient standard over a distance of 50 meters. It is important to remember, however, that places might be limited in the event of the club being full, and that the decision of the Club Coach as to the suitability of any applicant for membership shall be final.
