❤️ Thank you, HEARTBUOY!

A huge thank you to HEARTBUOY for kindly providing Phoenix Aquatics with their innovative swim training product to try.

First impressions — they look fantastic! ❤️ A really eye-catching, distinctive design that stands out on poolside, as well as being a genuinely versatile piece of training equipment.

The unique heart shape means we can use it between the thighs, at the ankles, as a traditional pull buoy, or in the hands for kick and streamline work.

We’re particularly excited to experiment with the ankle position, where the lower buoyancy challenges swimmers to maintain their own hip position, body line and core control rather than relying on the artificial lift of a larger conventional pull buoy.

We’re always looking for different ways to challenge our swimmers and keep training effective, purposeful and interesting, so we’re looking forward to putting our HEARTBUOY equipment through its paces over the next few weeks.

❤️ A great-looking piece of kit with lots of training possibilities.

Thank you HEARTBUOY for supporting Phoenix Aquatics and giving us the opportunity to try them!

🔥 Rise With Us.

🔥 PHOENIX AQUATICS — YEAR ONE HIGHLIGHTS 🔥

What a first year….

From launching a brand-new club to competing at Scottish, British and international level, our swimmers have achieved so much in our very first season — alongside countless personal bests across every level of the club.

🏴 Scottish Short Course Championships — 11 swimmers

🥉 National League B Final — 3rd Place
An amazing achievement, made even more remarkable after receiving a 20-point forfeit because we didn’t have enough swimmers to fill the team.

🥇 1 Individual Gold
🥉 2 Individual Bronze
🥉 1 Relay Bronze

🇬🇧 British Championships — 3 swimmers
⭐ 1 B Final

And this is only Year One.

From swimmers experiencing their first competition, to national champions, British finalists and Scottish international selections, we couldn’t be prouder of what this young club has achieved.

Most importantly, we’ve seen progress throughout the whole club — countless PBs, growing confidence and a team that continues to develop together.

Thank you to our swimmers, coaches, parents and everyone who has supported Phoenix Aquatics during our first year.

We’ve built the foundations. Now we keep building.
