borocuda teesside amateur swimming club
London
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.
