Our swimmers delivered an excellent performance at the 2026 Yorkshire Swimming Association Championships, competing across multiple galas at the John Charles Centre for Sport in Leeds and Ponds Forge in Sheffield. Across the Championships, KUHSC athletes achieved numerous personal best times, top-10 finishes and medal-winning performances, showcasing the strength and depth of the club across age groups. These results highlight the hard work of our swimmers and coaches throughout the long-course season.

Kingston Upon Hull Swimming Club enjoyed two hugely successful weekends at John Charles Centre for Sport for this year’s Yorkshire Winter Competition. A total of 76 young swimmers qualified for the championship, coming home with a stunning haul of 41 medals, 20 of them gold! There were some gutsy swims against very tough competition, many of them in personal best times. Both weekends were long and intense but the effort and commitment from swimmers never faltered, right until the very end.
Following the hugely successful county championships in February, Kingston Upon Hull Swimming Club showcased their hard work and talent at the North East Regional Championships in April and May, beating swimmers from some of the best clubs in the North East Region. A number of our younger swimmers had very packed schedules with multiple finals, but there was maximum effort from everyone right until the very end.
