About us

HDASC is a thriving competitive swimming club, running since 1975, based at Aubigny Sports Centre in Haddington.

We train in Haddington, Prestonpans and North Berwick and have swimmers from Haddington and across all of East Lothian.

At HDASC we believe anyone can be a competitive swimmer. We are dedicated to creating an
environment that nurtures the enjoyment and enthusiasm of every athlete within our club.
We create an intentional culture of personal integrity based on the acceptance of rules, fairness, inclusion and respect for others

HDASC provides a fun, friendly, focused environment where qualified, experienced coaches help
7-18 year olds to develop excellent swimming technique, in all 4 strokes.  They develop skills such as diving and tumble turns and improve their stamina, speed and fitness. supported by a growth mindset.

The Club's mantra is " best that you can be", so we create the intentional culture where confidence is built and individual progress is celebrated. 

HDASC have Scottish Swimming "swiMark" accreditation, demonstrating good practice and a commitment to athlete, volunteer and coach development. 

New entrants aged 7-10 years normally join the Minnows squad. Older, more accomplished swimmers are accepted subject to there being a place in the appropriate squad. 

The Club welcomes new members and taster sessions are held by arrangement with the Head Coach. To arrange please contact her at hc.swimhaddington@gmail.com
