Alliance Wavebreakers

Alliance Wavebreakers is the learn to swim programme of Alliance ASC, the North Belfast and Newtownabbey competitive swimming club.

Alliance Wavebreakers is the learn to swim programme of Alliance ASC, the North Belfast swimming club.

The aim of the Wavebreakers programme is to introduce children in North Belfast to swimming, and to help them become confident and safe in the water.

Our lessons are subsidised by the club to make them affordable, while also keeping the teacher-pupil ratio very low (typically 3: 1 for Swim Ireland Levels 1 to 3). We hope that many of our 'graduates' will decide to go on into competitive swimming, whether with Alliance or elsewhere.

Lessons take place on Friday evenings at the Belfast Royal Academy (BRA) pool on Cliftonville Road Belfast, and will begin in September 2017.
