Curious about swimming in Groningen? Join the gay and lesbian swimming team, or come visit us for a quick scan. At Zwem Goud, we think it's important for everyone to be able to enjoy sports without having to be worried about their acceptance as gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. There is a big difference in being accepted or not having to be worried about being and showing who you are. At Zwem Goud we provide that safe environment. Hey, we even welcome heterosexuals. 

We train on a regular basis in the Helperzwembad, Moddermanlaan 40. That's in the southern part of town. Wednesdays 19.00 - 20.00 in the 'old' pool (the one in front of you upon entering the building) and Fridays 20.00 - 21.00 in the 'new' pool (the one to the left). 

We are serious about swimming, but do have different levels of training, so there's a place for everyone! You will be placed in a lane according to your own level. Each training consists of a program with a different focus like interval training, endurance or technique.

We do not provide for swimming lessons, so if you are not familiar with the swimming pool, we suggest you take some lessons in the basic techniques and then join us to expand your knowledge and strenghten your physique.

Come and check us out! The first 2 training sessions are for free!

If you like to have more information before visiting the swimming pool, contact us: secretaris@zwemgoud.nl. We'll get back to you a.s.a.p!
