The academy

Fall back in love with the water.

SWEEP is for people who want to get seriously fast without the noise. We coach from evidence. We keep the deck quiet, we write every set for a reason, and nobody swims junk metres to fill a clock.

01 · Measured

We film your races and log your splits and stroke rate, so a correction is something you can see rather than something you are told.

02 · Technique-first

We fix the stroke before we add the metres, and we keep fixing it all season.

03 · Race-ready

You race most weeks of the year. Training is built backwards from those races.

04 · Open-minded

Nobody shouts here. The work is hard, and a swimmer is allowed to try something new and get it wrong.

Programs · pick your lane · 12 and up

One academy. Twelve and up.

Six sessions a week on offer. Squads train all six, juniors three to six, masters a shorter evening week. Sat–Wed 8:00–10:30 PM · Fri 2:30–5:00 PM · Thu rest

The squads

Red. Blue. One academy.

Leans sprint

SWEEP Red

Most of these swimmers race short and fast.

Leans middle distance

SWEEP Blue

Pacing, and holding the stroke together when it hurts.

Red and Blue are the competitive heart of the academy. They train the full week — five evenings and a Friday afternoon — and spend the season trying to out-point each other for the squad title. Juniors and masters train in the same water, and the strongest of them earn a lane here. It keeps training honest, and it's half the fun of being here.

How a season runs

Six steps, then again.

  1. 01 / 06

    Mind

    Open to trying something new, and to getting it wrong on the way.

    We start with the head: a swimmer who will try, fail and try again is one we can coach

    Assess

    We study your racing history and watch you swim. Best events, honest starting point.

    Correct

    Technique first. We fix the stroke before we add the metres.

    Measure

    Splits, stroke rate, video, recovery. Every correction has something behind it.

    Splits, stroke rate, effort and recovery logged all season

    Race

    Most weeks of the year, filmed — including events you have never tried.

    Review

    You watch it back with a coach, and the next block is written from what you both saw.

    We film you and show you the footage in the same session

The deck team

Six coaches. One standard.

Every coach here swam competitively, and some of us raced for Egypt. Most nights, all six of us are on deck.

Why SWEEP exists

The name is not a slogan.

Our head coach spent years swimming volume nobody explained to him, picking up injuries and results that never matched the work. SWEEP is the academy he needed then: every set has a purpose, and the swimmer is told what it is.

Your first length is free.

Come swim one full session with the group that fits your age. We coach you through the whole session, then tell you where you would fit.
