Due to the Masters meet at Etwall, and the Nuneaton and Bedworth Open Meet, all lessons and sessions will be cancelled on Saturday 27th November and Sunday 28th November at Castle Vale Pool.
All lessons and Sessions WILL continue at Beeches and Handsworth Pools.
Any queries, including swimming at a different session please contact us. Thank you
Unfortunately the big pool at Handsworth is currently closed, as the roof suffered some structural damage during the recent storms.
The small pool remains open as normal.
As soon as we get any further information we will share it.
All Big Pool lessons on a Sunday afternoon have been moved over to Beeches pool BUT they are one hour earlier than they were previously (for example Beginners and Advanced Lengths start at 13:00 on Sunday afternoons).
Any questions or queries please contact us and let us know. Thank you.

Why not take a peek at the club kit on Allens of Kingsbury – don’t forget to use code ‘Perry10’ to get 10 per cent off your purchases at Allens 😊
We have spent the last two days at SwimGainz in Halesowen, and we cannot recommend them enough. Stroke tweaking and correction is their speciality. Why not take a peek at their website and plan a visit now 😊
Perry: The Official Mascot of Birmingham 2022
Perry_Colour_In_Sheets_A4 – Perry Colouring sheets just for you 🙂
Our Perry can’t wait to get out and meet everyone at Birmingham 2022. But until then, there are plenty of fascinating facts to learn about our friend – from his multicoloured hexagons to his horns and his basketball kit.
Perry is named after Perry Barr, the area of Birmingham where the transformed Alexander Stadium will host the Games’ opening and closing ceremonies and athletics events. Perry will be trackside to get the party started!
No animal says “Birmingham” more than the bull! We’ve had a Bull Ring market for hundreds of years, near the modern Bullring shopping centre, with its iconic bronze bull sculpture. Perry is a different kind of bull, though – colourful, cheeky and kind – Brum’s latest icon!
We are the Games for everyone – that’s why Perry’s hexagons are all the colours of the rainbow! They represent the coming together of the Commonwealth in equal partnership with the diverse communities of Birmingham and the West Midlands. Hexagons are also the strongest shape – strong like our Commonwealth Games family.
Perry’s gleaming medal is a nod to Brum’s historic Jewellery Quarter, the largest of its kind in Europe! The area produces 40% of the UK’s jewellery, and it’s also home to one of the world’s largest Assay Office, which hallmarks millions of precious items every year.
Perry is sport mad and will have a go at anything! Can you spot the blue, red and yellow stripes on his kit? They’re the same colours as the official Birmingham flag. Birmingham’s motto is Forward, and Perry is certainly looking forward to entertaining the crowds in 2022!
