Overview
Brinscall and Withnell Amateur Swimming Club (WASC) has been going for about 60 years at the Brinscall Swimming Pool (located at Lodge Bank in Brinscall, Lancashire). It is reneowned for its friendly, safe, professional and very effective approach to teaching children to swim. It is run completely by volunteers and is funded by membership and door fees collected from club members, plus some sponsorship by local companies and individuals.

The club is undergoing the final stages of applying for charitable status. A group of trustees have been appoointed to oversee the fair running of the club. The club is managed by a committee made up of volunteers, and includes coaches and parents. The committee meets monthly in the Hoghton Arms and welcomes any new faces.

All the instructors are police cleared and have undertaken the relevant professional qualifications.

The club also organises gala, parties and other social events throughout the year.

Any help with coaching, door cash collection or administration is always well appreciated.
