Our aquatic disciplines provide training environments in a number of Performance Centres across the UK for permanent athlete groups as well as acting as 'performance hubs' for national programme-wide activity for World Class Programme athletes.

This includes the Loughborough, Shefield and Manchester Performance Centres, with some support to world class programme athletes based in Stirling also required. Travel to other centres within the Aquatics GB network may be required to fulfil non-delivery duties. Support at domestic and international competitions and training camps will also be required.
