Swimming

The WIS swim team has a strong pedigree of competitive success and we pride ourselves on our inclusivity and accessibility for swimmers of all abilities. We compete in the ISSFHK division 1 (finishing 4th overall last year) and HKSSF division 2. Every year our students embrace the team philosophy as well as the individual drive to win medals. The WIS swim programme aims to promote the activity as an essential life skill, and provide opportunities and support for competitive swimming up to and including elite level.

The training schedule can be seen below:

Coaching Provision

The Pacific Swim Club (1987) is dedicated to developing swimmers through a comprehensive program that blends technical skill-building with goal-setting and a strong competitive mindset. Our coaching philosophy emphasises progressive skill development, physical fitness, and mental resilience to nurture elite athletes. Over the years, we have set more than 60 age group records and supported over 50 swimmers representing Hong Kong internationally. Consistently ranked among Hong Kong’s top swim clubs, we prioritize inclusivity and personal growth alongside competitive success. Our year-round training prepares swimmers for two major competition seasons, fostering both long-term development and peak performance. Recent achievements include breaking Hong Kong records in the 50m Breaststroke and strong performances at major international events like the World Aquatic Championships and World Cup Series.

Charges

HK$300 per week, flat fee. This gives access to each open and team session, or the learn-to-swim session. Session allocation will be decided by the coaching team and be based on a student’s ability and safety in the water.

For team swimmers not training in the weekly CAS with WIS/PSC, a nominal charge of $30HKD per week is levied for the Monday session.
