Welcome!

Laois Marlins Swimming Club was formed in September 2009. Since then the Club has grown and now includes swimmers at every level, from learning technique to competing for coveted medals in Division 1 Galas.

Best of Luck and Well Done!

Well done to all club members who competed in the recent Leinster galas. Best of luck to those of you who were lucky enough to go forward. We're very proud of you all!

Welcome Back!

This year is shaping up to be our best ever, and with lots of new coaches, extended training times for our A squad and an ambitious training plan, we're looking forward to competing and having fun at lots of galas this year. Don't forget that A Squad training is 30 minutes longer this season, it will help to improve your times and your skills.

Join the Club

We're recruiting new members! If you're interested, check out the formation of our squads and get in touch with Violet Nealon, the club secretary today!
