Originally founded in [20XX] by Simon [Surname] a highly respected local coach, the Cotgrave Swim Squad has long been one of the most welcoming communities of swimmers in the area. In 2025, the group renamed itself the Vale Swim Collective and is now coached by Reflective Endurance Coaching.

In October 2025, the squad expanded to include REC’s Saturday afternoon swim, giving members the chance to swim twice a week or enjoy more flexibility if Wednesdays don’t always fit your schedule. Additionally, in summer months, group open water swim sessions are often organised within the membership price.

If you’re fit enough to swim for 45–60 minutes, you’ll find a place here — we welcome everyone, with a wide range of paces across the lanes.

If you have any questions about the group or want to join us, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
