AASC Club Memberships are ready for purchase! If you require financial support with registration and/or pool entry on club Saturday mornings please complete this google form https://forms.gle/iScWXECVmuv3ceKo7 .

Our club Treasurer Adam Townsend reports that the 2025/26 membership registration and payment process is painless. We have tested the system with a few families without issue.

So, please head to –

Hopefully things are intuitive from there, but here are a few pointers:

Login and reset password if needed. New members, you will first need to create Swim Central accounts via the link above.

Returning Members would have recently received an email directly from Swim Central. The system has placed a replacement membership in your Shopping Cart to make things easy. You can review this and pay, or clear the system (if there are changes) and follow the steps below.

Go to Store

Go To Memberships

Select who you are purchasing for (on the right), and you should be presented with two/three options – Club Swimmer, Dry Supporter and Second Claim Membership (see screenshot #1 below).

For existing members, the Ashfield ASC membership options should pop straight up. If they do not, or for new members, just search for Ashfield on the left.

Add to cart, noting that when you click on the cart the Active Kids Voucher option pops up for children.

Note that the swimmer’s age drives some options – ie Dry Supporter is only available for 18+ and Kids Voucher will only pop up for is for <19. Hence, if an option is not coming up, it is likely that you are on the wrong person – ie no kid voucher option might mean that you are trying to pay for an adult, and you will need to correctly select the child.

From there, we just need your money!

New Members – please head to Swim Central via the link above and register

2025-26 Membership Options

Ashfield Swim Club – Club Swimmer 2025/26 – $125

This membership is for all swimmers. If you are swimming, and are not a member of another club, then this is the membership for you! Applies to kids and adults.

Ashfield Swim Club – Dry Supporter 2025/26 – $40

This membership is for adults who are not swimming, but wish to show their support for the Club. This is not compulsory, though we are strongly encouraging people to join this membership category to bolster club numbers as we negotiate pool time with the Ashfield Aquatic Centre etc. Robust membership numbers will definitely help, and we appreciate the support.

Ashfield Swim Club – Second Claim Membership 2025/26 – $52

If you don’t know what it is, stay away! Or talk to Adam Townsend. This membership is for swimmers who are also members of other competitive clubs – ie Leichhardt and PLC.

Life Members

Do not purchase anything from Swim Central! Please pay Adam in cash as usual. Rabbitohs and Rooster fans and Frank have special pricing again this year

A final note – you are not covered by insurance unless you are registered. Please register before you turn up to the club for your first swim. This does not apply to new members who are welcome to try things out before committing.
