HAILSHAM Swimming Club is celebrating after being crowned Sussex League Division 2 Champions, marking a defining moment in the club’s recent history.
Competing in a newly introduced one-day Sussex League format, the team rose to the challenge with determination, unity and belief, delivering a performance that showcased not only talent, but the strength of the club’s culture.
This success also signals the beginning of an exciting new chapter under head coach James Nock, whose leadership, energy and vision are already having a significant impact.
Under his guidance, the club has embraced a clear sense of direction, blending technical excellence with a strong team ethos. The Division 2 title is not just a result; it is a reflection of the culture being built across the programme, according to the club.
Adding to the excitement, the triumph coincides with the upcoming reopening of the club’s refurbished training base at Bede’s School Sports Centre, ready for September.
This high-quality facility provides the ideal foundation for the next phase of the club’s journey. The combination of improved facilities and a clear coaching vision puts Hailsham in a powerful position to continue developing swimmers from grassroots through to county, regional and beyond.
A spokesperson said: “Success at Hailsham is never just about what happens in the water. Behind this achievement stands a dedicated network of parents, volunteers and officials, whose tireless support makes competition possible and creates the welcoming, family-orientated environment the club is known for.
With the backing of Sussex County ASA and a growing reputation within the county structure, Hailsham Swimming Club is building real momentum. The Division 2 title is a milestone—but it is also a launchpad.
For swimmers looking to develop in a supportive, ambitious and high-performing environment, there has never been a better time to be part of Hailsham Swimming Club.
With a championship-winning team, experienced coaching, upgraded facilities and a thriving club culture, the pathway is there for those ready to take the next step.”
