The BASC Annual Club Champs are just a few weeks away and provides a great opportunity for everyone involved in the club; swimmers, coaches and chauffeurs – to get together, celebrate another year of swimming and have some fun.

BASC’s very own Ellen Kilgour recently took part in a Scottish Swimming Youth Leaders event weekend in Dunoon. Ellen was representing BASC amoungst other youth leaders from clubs all over the West of Scotland. This was a great experience for Ellen to be involved in and also helps to raise the clubs profile.
