Facility Objectives for Competitive Swimming

• To ensure that the legacy of the Olympic Facility creates an improved performance pathway for Swimming in London
• To allow the ASA to create a performance pathway to achieve the above whilst allowing access to clubs to use the facility in the opening stages

Prioritisation

• The UEL/Newham Talent Programme will have prioritised access and a long term agreement that will allow expansion over time
• All other club bookings will be able to hire on a weekly basis via a quarterly hire
• One off bookings / training camps
• Major events will take precedent over bookings and a 28 day notice period will be given to hirers
• Where clubs require the same space, hire will be given based on our priority booking list
• No pool time is guaranteed beyond the length of a quarterly contract
