Durham University Swimming Club is one of Durhams most dedicated and fastest improving sports teams. With the increasing profile of the club and the increasing financial strains of obtaining and sustaining pool-time and access to a full-time swimming coach the club is currently looking for new and exciting businesses to become involved in our club.

The club competes at a variety of galas with one of our swimmers being selected to swim for the Isle of Man in the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne. We organise an annual intercollegiate gala in order to raise the profile of the club at a college level. DUSC members also coach junior swimmers from the local community at Durham City Swimming Club both helping younger talent to develop, and again promoting the club locally.

Sponsorship of DUSC will raise the public profile of your company locally, nationally and internationally through the numerous training and competitive events we attend. Aside from showing your support for a growing university sport, through your sponsorship you would be associating with a club that is going from strength to strength. To continue to grow and build upon recent successes, we are seeking a partner who shares the same ambition, drive and determination as us.

What can we offer you as a business?

As a business you would be associated with one of Durham's most talented and dedicated sports teams, and undoubtedly the liveliest and best supported team competing at BUSA championships.

We are able to offer you a variety of publicity opportunities from your business logo on all of our racing, training and leisure kit which is worn regularly by our swimmers both within and outside of Durham, to your logo on all of our general correspondence, alumni newsletters and emails, and to feature within all advertising campaigns.

We are also happy to organise and arrange any swimming training for your staff, customers and management within Durham. Swimming is a highly team-orientated sport that encourages trust, team-spirit and most of all fun.
