Our club is run by a committee of parents and friends who meet once a month to discuss club matters, set registration fees for the season, liaise with approved Club coaches and NT Swimming, plan fundraising activities, and keep records of all swimmers times. The fees set by the committee go to cover the cost of pool lane hire, insurance, and NT Swimming capitation fees.
Our training season varies from year to year but once the new Indoor Aquatic centre has been built we will be able to offer a winter season and summer season. Our major fundraising activity is selling Baked Potatoes at various major community events. The club owns a Hot Potato van, affectionately known as “Nellie”, and our committee, parents and senior swimmers all help to raise funds by volunteering their time to work on the stall.

Club History
Our club has a very proud history over the past 30 odd years.  We have produced a swimmer who broke an Australian record, had a number of swimmers in Olympic Trials and Australian Open Championships, and won gold, silver and bronze medals in Australian Age Championships.
This club has had swimmers compete at all of the Arafura Games and has had many swimmers win medals at these games, competing against swimmers from up to 15 other countries and the list goes on. The outstanding results of the past years have proven that swimmers from the bush can compete with the best in Australia even on limited pool time availability. We fully intend to ensure that the future will be just  as fruitful.  
We also have a very good support group of parents who work tirelessly to make our club the best.  Over past years this group has raised funds to purchase the electronic timing equipment, build the brick control room by the pool, and help subsidize trips away for swimmers to attend carnivals and training camps, and provide coaches with development opportunities.
