Borocuda Teesside Amateur Swimming Club

B-TASC is a local swimming club which was founded in 2018 by the director of Borocuda swim school who recognised that many of the children coming through the school had potential to continue their journey and grow their love for the sport. The club has a family focussed ethos and a friendly culture which helps to nurture swimmers along their competitive swimming journey. The club has flourished despite the pandemic and now caters to 60 swimmers aged 7-16 across 5 squads. Most recently has been the addition of a disability/para squad which is the only squad of it’s kind within the Teesside area. Swimmers are regularly competing including at county and regional level and the youth squad recently competed in the Northumberland and Durham Junior Swim League and won, earning promotion to the 2nd League! The club currently operates out of 3 pools across Teesside, including the Unicorn pool in Middlesbrough which was built during the height of the pandemic. It is ran by qualified and experienced coaches and teachers and is primarily volunteer led.
