Junior League
NEWCASTLE SWIM TEAM is one of the largest Clubs in the North East of England, with over 300 members ranging in age from 7 to our senior swimmers. We are very proud of our Junior League Team. The competition means a lot to the club, our swimmers and the wider Newcastle Swim Team family of parents and supporters.
The Junior ‘Diddy’ League involves our swimmers aged from 9 to 12. It is a wonderful introduction to competitive swimming for your very young swimmers plus an excellent opportunity for the swimmers to experience team competition in the swimming calendar. Many clubs from the local region compete against each other vying for the title of Junior League Champions. There are 3 Divisions where teams compete against each other over 4 rounds. The top teams in their Division then proceed to the final, with the winner being promoted to the division above and the team finishing bottom is relegated. The winners of the Division 1 title qualify for the Northern Region finals, with a view to finishing top 6 there and proceed to the National Finals.
