East Brisbane Swim Club is located at Anglican Church Grammar School (Churchie.) in the suburb of East Brisbane. The club offers a comprehensive swim programme that caters from Beginners and Stroke Development through to Competition, State and National squads. The club is housed at the Barry McCart Aquatic Centre and has both 25m and 50m pools available. Both pools are heated and utilized all year round.   East Brisbane Swim Club is affiliated with the Brisbane Swimming Association and Swimming Queensland. Through these associations it offers members the opportunity to compete at regional, state and national levels. This year our club finished 4th overall at the 2012 Queensland State Swimming Championships and 6th overall at the 2013 Australian Age Championships held at the SA Aquatic Centre in Adelaide during the April school holidays.   The club provides a weekly club night on a Friday afternoon through term 1 and term 4 each year. All members from junior through to senior levels are encouraged to attend these nights. The season culminates each year with Club Championships.   East Brisbane Swim Club prides itself on being a club which can bring the whole family together to participate in a healthy and outdoor sport. Parental support and involvement in all aspects of the club is encouraged.
