Hamble Aquatics Swimming Club

Hamble Aquatics Swim Team (HAST) are a friendly, yet competitive Southampton Swimming Club based in Hamble. The club caters for all capabilities from beginner to national competitor. We aim to provide swimmers with the opportunity to fulfil their maximum potential and have a proven track record of swimmers succeeding at all levels – Hampshire County ASA, ASA South East Regional and National. Hamble Aquatics has been established since 1997 and is a dynamic and energetic club of about 55 swimmers.  

In October 2024 Hamble went back to Club La Santa (CLS), Lanzarote for another warm weather training camp; 19 swimmers from our top two squads were chosen to attend. The trip was supported by our assistant coach Phil, club chair Anna and one of our welfare officers and social media guru Benji. Throughout the week the swimmers took part in training twice a day as well as different activities every morning which the group undertook. Afternoons were a great time for the swimmers to be able to chill out by the pool or catch up on sleep, before the afternoon session. More specifics about what the swimmers get up to can be found here. Hamble are heading back out to CLS in October 2026.

A key ethos of the club is that each swimmer is treated as an individual, but everyone is part of Team Hamble. As a relatively small club, we put great store in the importance of this team spirit and consider it important that we are helping to build the character of our young swimmers. We believe that much of our success in competition stems from the support which our swimmers and parents give to each other as well as from individual ability of our swimmers.

We predominately use the swimming pool at Hamble Sport College plus some squads train at Wildern Leisure Centre on a Thursday morning.

Our Head Coach Amy Rodger is supported by her Assistant Coach Phil Wilson: Coaches, Scott Dawson and Leo Mills.

To join one of our competitive squads your child will need to attend an assessment session where we assess their swimming ability. It also gives you the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about joining a squad.

We very much look forward to hearing from you.
