Winchester City Penguins Swimming Club has over 1200 members and has been teaching Winchester to swim since 1901.

The club used Google Docs to manage members and struggled to keep records up to date. Meet and gala entries were also time-consuming, with members completing forms that then had to be collated manually. With SwimClub Manager, communication is easier, records are more accurate and entering information takes less time. The club also values SCM’s support for Sport Systems and Hy-Tek.
