Swimming Fees

Club Membership Fee

All squad swimmers must pay our annual club membership fee.  The membership year runs from 1 July - 30 June.  Membership fees are due on joining the Club and on 1 July each year.  

Squad training fees are charged separately and are paid to Glen Findlay, Hampden Swimming Institute.  Glen will contact you separately about squad fees.

SNZ Fee

In addition to the Club membership fee, swimmers need to pay a fee to register with Swimming New Zealand (SNZ). 

A portion of the SNZ fee contributes to our regional association, Swimming Nelson Marlborough (SNM).

The SNZ registration fee is an annual fee covering the period 1 July - 30 June.

Once these fees are paid swimmers can swim at all meets that are appropriate for them.

Payment Of Fees

Both the Club membership fee and the SNZ registration fee are paid through the SNZ Fast Lane Portal.
