What is Arena League?
The National Arena Swimming League is a highlight of the competitive swimming calendar, bringing clubs together for an exciting team competition.
Unlike most swimming meets, Arena League is all about representing your club. Every individual swim and relay earns points towards the team’s overall result, creating an atmosphere full of teamwork, racing and club spirit.
Across three rounds, clubs compete for points towards their regional league position, with the leading clubs progressing through the competition.
Being selected to represent Paignton Swimming Club is a real achievement. The coaching team selects swimmers based on recent performances, commitment to training and racing, and their ability to contribute positively to the team.
