About Our Club

A Supportive Swimming Community At Yarra Plenty Waves

 

Yarra Plenty Waves is a community based swim club focused on developing and inspiring a life long love of swimming.

​

We welcome swimmers of all ages and abilities, from those taking their first steps beyond swim school through to swimmers training and competing at a high level. Our pathways are progressive, inclusive, and designed to support each swimmer to grow in confidence, skill, and enjoyment of the sport.

 

We believe swimming should be enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding, with a healthy balance of fun and hard work. Families are an important part of our club, and we value the role they play in supporting swimmers throughout their journey. 

​

At Yarra Plenty Waves, we support the whole swimmer.

 

Beyond skill development in the pool, we focus on building confidence, resilience, teamwork, and a strong sense of belonging. Swimmers are encouraged to support one another, show respect, and take pride in being part of the club community.

 

We believe swimmers develop best when they feel supported, included, and proud of their progress.

Home Pool & Club Rooms

Herb Norman Pool is our home base and club hub. The six lane 25 metre pool provides an excellent training environment, supported by a strength training room for dryland sessions. The venue also offers family friendly facilities including BBQ areas, function rooms, and ample parking, helping foster a strong club community.

WaterMarc, Greensborough

We also conduct regular training sessions at WaterMarc, giving swimmers the opportunity to train in a 50 metre pool. This facility supports skill progression and prepares swimmers for higher level competition, with access to high quality aquatic and fitness facilities.

The Yarra River, from which our club is named, is known as Birrarung, meaning River of Mists in the language of Woiwurrung spoken by the Wurundjeri. 

We acknowledge the Wurundjeri people as the traditional custodians of this land. We respect their unique ability to care for the country and their deep spiritual connection to it. We honour Elders Past and present, who have resided in the area and who are an integral part of the region's history.
