Alongside the Competitive Pathway, we offer a Fitness Pathway for swimmers who value health, enjoyment, and lifelong participation.

As we enter the second week of our Summer Tickover programme, it feels like the perfect moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate the amazing achievements of our swimmers during the first half of the year. From January through to the end of the long-course season, Bluefins athletes have been rewriting the club record books on an almost weekly basis.

Massive congratulations to our 16 Bluefins swimmers who have qualified for the 2025 Summer National Championships in Sheffield. This is a phenomenal achievement for the club, and a reflection of the talent, commitment, and hard work of our athletes, coaches, and wider Bluefins family.

At Bluefins, we know that great swimming comes from mastering the small details — but we also know that learning should be fun. This week...

The 2025 Hampshire Age Group & Youth Championships will go down as one of the most successful in Bluefins’ history. Across three action-packed weekends, our swimmers produced an avalanche of medals, finals, PBs, and club records, with stand-out swims from our youngest 10-year-olds right through to our Performance athletes chasing British Champs times.

This January marks a milestone moment for Basingstoke Bluefins, as we proudly announce our biggest ever entry to the Hampshire Age Group and Youth Championships. An incredible 95 swimmers will be representing Bluefins over the next few weekends — a record number that highlights just how far our club has come in recent years.
