City of Plymouth Amateur Swimming AssociationIn the water, together. Since 1912.

Our association

A shared swimming tradition. More than a century in the making.

Bringing clubs together

The City of Plymouth Amateur Swimming Association connects swimming clubs in Plymouth and the surrounding area. Its activities have included swimming galas at Plymouth Life Centre, the Breakwater open-water swim and the Lamb Trophy water polo tournament.

The gala’s welcoming atmosphere has helped younger swimmers experience competition and given swimmers from different clubs a chance to race together.

Be part of the community

Swimmers, families, club representatives and volunteers all play a part. If you would like to support events or train as an official, get in touch.
