Get your New Stress free swim club website now

Great question!

Social media posts are here today and gone tomorrow – great for reaching lots of people, but not so good for sharing information that can be easily found when you need it – such as memberships, information about club nights, uniform and committees, and club sponsors.

We believe that a club needs  both web and socials – they compliment each other. Our template allows you to republish social media content on the site so you get the best of both worlds.

An example of the website is [press here]. You will receive an exact copy of this for you to modify using our easy to follow instructions.

Basic customisation of colours, menus, sections and layouts is easily achieveable and supported by our team. Major customisation is out of scope of this service.

Your club will need:

• lead person with an email address
• with computer connected to the internet running a web browser
• words and pictures (“content”) to publish

Prior skills and experience are not required but we recommend that the person is computer friendly.

For your peace of mind you may enjoy our 100% money back guarantee if not entirely satisfied within 30 days of purchase! This applies to the website only, not any optional paid-for extras.

There is no demo site but you can view the new template [here].

Yes.

yourname.swimmingclub.org.au will be your URL (subject to availability). Alternatively we can support you to purchase and/or connect a different URL*.

We regret that existing name.swimming.org.au URLs are being discontinued by Swimming Australia and cannot be transferred in.

Swimming Areas / Regions / Districts / Zones (who are not clubs) are recommended to purchase their own domain if they dislike swimmingclub.org.au

The website will link to Swim Central, not integrate with it. Swim Central accounts are entirely separate from any admin website logins.

Your members should continue to enter events via Swim Central.

For WA clubs, links to Swim Central can easily be changed to My Swim Results. Again, it does not integrate and logins will be separate.

The website does not integrate with Meet Mobile.

We migrate content from your existing to new site. We’ll do our best to bring everything across but compromises may be made – particularly on layout and formatting.

Up to 10 standard pages are included plus a handful of events. If you have more than this and/or your pages are more complex then we will contact you to discuss options. Please contact us if you would like a quote.

Note this service is subject to availability.

No.

Doubling pages does not mean doubling the price!

Contact us for a quote, or place your order and we’ll work out the details later.

Probably, but you’re in control.

Once your new website is fully operational we recommend you post a large message on the top of the old one to direct visitors to the new site.

It is not possible to divert existing swimming.org.au traffic to the new sites unfortunately.

We have no control over search engines. Their algorithms usually spot when traffic drops to an old site and shifts to a new one.

No. This is a website service only.

No.

Yes.

You (the swim club) owns the content. We only ask that you retain the Swim.Rocks name and link in the footer, everything else is within your full control and ownership.

No, unless you find your own advertisers of course.

Could you find a website sponsor who pays for the site in return for their logo being displayed? 

Swimming Australia will be terminating its existing club websites on that day. All existing content will then be lost. We recommend you migrate to a new service prior. We can do that for you if you wish*.

Yes absolutely!

This will be very easy. Simply direct them to our easy to follow operating instructions, and set them up with a new login to the site.

No not directly. We recommend that you use Swim Central, Stripe or other services for payments.

To create an online uniform shop we suggest you create a page displaying merchandise on our platform, with a link to a Stripe hosted payment page.

Yes absolutely. For clubs in WA we can easily change ‘Swim Central’ link to ‘My Swim Results’.

Yes absolutely.

We can also optionally manage content migration subject to a final check of the existing website. Simply place your order to get started now.
