Aquamark Level 1 Accreditation - 25th March 2024

Scottish Swimming aims to have clubs which are strong, sustainable, and inclusive to help grow our sport.

The aims of the Aquamark accreditation are to provide a nationally recognised standard that will enable clubs to: 

• Be inclusive, adhere to equality standards and engage with the local community.
• Develop safe, effective, well governed, welcoming, and friendly environments, based on good practice.
• Improve the club experience for all members by having an agreed vision and culture. 
• Strive to be a long-term sustainable club focused on developing pathways for all.

Aquamark is designed to be achievable for any club size or level. The accreditation structure allows clubs to tailor Aquamark to fit with their clubs aims and objectives while still ensuring they are always developing the best environment for their members.

This achievement highlights DASC’s commitment to excellence in coaching, strong management structures, and creating a safe, child-friendly environment. It also reinforces our dedication to providing a sustainable development pathway for swimmers of all abilities, ensuring that children, young people, parents, carers, and the wider community can trust in the quality of our club.
