Our Story
Our club was founded in 1995 by Penny Snell as Medway Mermaids Synchronised Swimming Club.
In September 2020 following a change internationally and by our governing body to the name of our sport, we became Medway Artistic Swimming Club. Our logo was redesigned by Rosie Lonsdale, who is one of our coaches and master's swimmer.
Originally a junior only club, we added our master's section in 2017 which has allowed our junior swimmers to continue swimming and competing after they are 18. As well as, introducing our exciting sport to adults with no previous experience.
For 20 years, we were based at North Kent College in Gravesend but we located in 2023 to Cobham Hall School and it has become our main training pool.
Medway Artistic Swimming Club are SwimMark Essential accredited by Swim England and have also been awarded Clubmark. We are also part of the Kent Synchro Network.
