12.01.2022 Thank you to the officials Pete Ticehurst and Eric Wood and congratulations to the swimmers Julia and Ruby Ross who represented Katoomba RSL swim club today at the Bathurst qualifying meet. Fantastic pbs and many places achieved.

12.01.2022 Katoomba Pool is set for a major improvement in facilities. I am very happy with this outcome of the concerted community campaign to Save Katoomba Pool. As one... of only two councillors who, right from the start, refused to even consider closing our beautiful Olympic pool, it is very gratifying that our argument to invest in the pool instead has won the day. Almost 2000 submissions from the community was critical to that happening. Well done everyone. See more

11.01.2022 Hi club members and parents, we would love to see a lot of Katoomba swimmers at the next MPS championships in Orange! Deadline to enter is 30th of January 2020. Please enter via swim central.

Thank you to Danijela for her expert coaching. Your dedication is amazing. Thank you to Eric who was an official at the event. Thank you to all the parents who assisted with Timekeeping. Thank you Corin for organising a fun dinner out on Sunday night. We have a great team!

09.01.2022 Don't forget to get your entries in by Tuesday 8pm for this Thursday's club night. 25th Oct.

09.01.2022 Liv is keen. Any other takers?

09.01.2022 Swim league registrations are closing soon. I currently have 16 people enrolled. I am still looking for 8 more senior swimmers and 13 junior swimmers. Please ch...eck out some FAQ below. What is Swim league? Swim league is an initiative designed to help swimmers build motivation and enjoyment for their swimming. In particular it is a chance for us to grow and improve out Mountain team squad relationship. This is specifically why I am trying to make it a fun weekend away and why I am encouraging anyone to try and make it if they can. We are team Mammoths and we will compete against two other teams in our region in the pool. We have 3 weekend competitions at Bathurst and Orange. The emphasis is not on race times but rather on racing well. Each swimmer must swim 2 swims and up to 5. Teams don't need to worry about marshalling etc but instead will be around the pool and be cheering, generating an exciting atmosphere. The point system is setup to keep it close. When is it? These are the current dates planned. May 22nd - 23rd Bathurst July 3rd - 4th Orange July 31st - Aug 1st - Bathurst Will the swimmers get times? There are not times. The goal is for swimmers to remove the pressure of achieving a time and just focus on racing fast. over the course of the season this can ultimately lead to the swimmer getting faster times from the racer practice. How do I sign up? Make sure you join the Mammoth team. Make sure you put down Corin Dobson during the "How did you find out about this" part of sign up. Use this link or google swim league NSW. make sure to click the Mammoth logo the same as above. https://membership.sportstg.com/regoform.cgi?formID=98012 What about travel and accommodation? These are the options we are looking at. I'll know costs based on how many people we get signed up. Option A: We hire a coach and travel out as a team for each of the weekends. We will stay together as much as possible in hotel style accommodation. Option B: We do the same as option A but we organise parents to convoy out swimmers. Option C: People go out individually. I have reserved accommodation for the 1st weekend for up to 70 people. The estimated cost for the accommodation would be $70 per person. The bus would be about $50-60 per person. All depends on numbers What else is happening? We will also aim to have group activities and a team dinner over the weekend.

09.01.2022 Hi swimmers and families Just a reminder about the Bunnings Sausage Sizzle tomorrow, from 8am at Bunnings Katoomba. Thanks to all the helpers who have already signed up for a two hour slot. We're still keen for a couple more between 12 and 2, if there's anyone out there who can spare some time. (Please email [email protected] is so). Even if you can't help on the day, do come and hang out for a bit, buy a snag (vegetarian also available) while you pick up your galvanised roofing screws and angle grinding discs, and have a chat (so we look like a bunch of fun-loving, inspiring and totally cool groovers that anyone would want to join in with. Yep, it's a membership drive too.) See you there. Margot

08.01.2022 Entries in by 8pm Wednesday for Thursday club night please.

07.01.2022 Hi everyone, this is a chance to tell Council how we use the pools at Katoomba, and give your ideas on improving the outdoor pool.

07.01.2022 Huge congratulations to Charlotte, Polly, Julia and Ruby for the fantastic PBs and medals at the 2021 Country Regional Championships at Oak Flats!

07.01.2022 Don't forget the Katoomba RSL Swimming Club AGM on Thursday 30 May at 6pm in the band room at Katoomba Sports and Aquatic Centre. All members welcome. Nominating for the committee is a great way to be more involved and help shape the direction for KRSLSC into the future.

06.01.2022 Congratulations to Julia Ross who put in an amazing effort representing our club today at the 2021 NSW Junior State Age Swimming Championships.

05.01.2022 Well done Olivia and Julia for representing Katoomba RSL Swim Club at Bathurst today!

04.01.2022 On the 1st of February 2020 a very successful Development Day took place at the Katoomba Sports and Aquatic Centre organized by the Katoomba RSL Swimming Club. It was lead by our two wonderful coaches Paul Dobson and Danijela Selby . Twenty children took the opportunity to enjoy the free coaching session from 10am-2pm that focused on diving, core activation, swimming position, buoyancy, hand position for propulsion, kicking and body stability, fast 50's, starts and finishes.... All participants were given individual feedback during the session. Everyone had a great morning session and they were looking forward to lunch that was provided by Katoomba RSL Swimming Club. In the afternoon at the second session the children worked on their diving techniques. It was a perfect preparation for upcoming school swimming carnival. The day was enjoyed by all, and there were a lot of smiling faces from both children and their parents. We would like to take the opportunity to especially thank Paul Dobson, who is retiring after 30 years working for Swimming NSW as a coach and Development Officer. Also thank Danijela Selby, Katoomba RSL Swimming Club's coach for her ongoing support and tireless hard work.

02.01.2022 Congratulations to Julia Ross who represented Katoomba RSL Swim Club at the 2021 NSW Country Championships and did some great PBs!

02.01.2022 Congratulations to all our members who braved the rainy weather today. Charlotte, Polly, Julia, Ruby, Tom and Alexander. Amazing efforts and fantastic PBs by all swimmers at the Lithgow carnival. All of our club swimmers went home with at least 1 medal. Also a huge achievement by Alexander and Ruby who completed their first ever swim meet! Alexander scored a bronze and Ruby struck gold! For a little club we were very well represented!... Thanks also to Peter who was refereeing at the event and to Laura who helped out with timekeeping.
