ZIOS Swimming Club

We’re glad you found your way to our site. We’ve set up this space to inform you better about who we are and what we do. Have you (or your child or family member) chosen our club? Great – thanks for your trust! Our board and coaching team are here to guide you in and out of the water.

At ZIOS, we value more than just athletic performance. Social and personal support matter just as much. We aim to help every swimmer grow – not only physically, but also mentally: a healthy mind in a healthy body. It’s important that members attend training sessions and club activities regularly. This regularity is key for progress and development. Swimming boosts physical, mental, and social development – and it’s a great way to unwind after school or work. We understand how important school is. That’s why we schedule training in a way that allows for two to three sessions a week without interfering with studies.

Lastly, we ask you to follow the club rules. It helps everyone know where they stand.

Jeugdlabel

ZIOS was founded on December 12, 1968 and is affiliated with the Flemish Swimming Federation (VZF) under number 322. As an official club, we of course follow the rules of the federation. ZIOS is a non-profit organization, which means we operate fully independently. Our board is made up of passionate volunteers.

The club is led by a chairman, supported by a vice-chairman, a secretary, a treasurer, and several board members. There is also a sports secretariat, a sports committee, and a party committee – each plays an important role in our operations.
