About ASC
Swimming since 1987
At ASC, we believe in nurturing talent through dedication and teamwork. Our experienced coaches are committed to helping each swimmer realise their potential while instilling core values such as perseverance and respect.
With a history dating back to 1987, the Australind Swimming Club (ASC) has established a strong legacy in the swimming community. Originating in Bunbury, the club made its initial debut as Leschenault Swimming Club at Leschenault Lesuire Centre (LLC) and has since undergone two name changes: first to the Golden West Dolphins and now to the Australind Swimming Club.
Today, the Australind Swimming Club continues to thrive, recently earning the title of top country club at Junior States. Our mission is to help every swimmer reach their full potential while enjoying a supportive and friendly environment.
Our committee and coaching team collaborate to create a setting that nurtures each swimmer’s skills and discipline, both in competitive swimming and in life. We aspire to be recognised as a center of swimming excellence and the leading country club in Western Australia, all while ensuring that our swimmers and their families have fun and achieve their goals.
The Australind Swimming Club is dedicated to advancing the sport of swimming within a community-centered environment. We focus on fostering positive values and ideals by offering swimmers the chance to grow and compete through a top-notch coaching program. With a supportive club atmosphere and access to excellent facilities, we aim to help swimmers reach their potential at Novice, Club, Regional, State, or National levels.

Swimming WA Competitions
Swimming WA sanctioned competitions are held in Perth and the Southwest region on weekends throughout the year. Swimmers over 8 years of age are encouraged to participate at Target meets, selected by the coaches at the beginning of each season.
Fees
As well as paying an annual registration fee, swimmers will pay a monthly squad fee to cover pool bookings and club administration. The monthly fee is different for each squad.
Please note that annual registration and squad fees do not cover pool entry fees. This fee is charged by the Leschenault Leisure Centre upon entry. Swimmers are encouraged to purchase LLC membership to help minimise costs.
Training
Squad and session times change with each new season. A new swimmer to the club will be assessed by the coaches and assigned to the most suitable squad for their ability.
Race Nights
All club members are invited to participate in Race Nights. This provides the opportunity for swimmers from all squads to interact. It gives new swimmers the chance to practice their new found skills in racing in a friendly, supportive atmosphere. Race Nights are held regularly throughout the year.
Race Nights also provide an opportunity for all the parents and guardians to meet, form new friendships and socialise at dinners held after the events.
Race Nights are all about trying to best your time from the meet before.
