Warrender Baths Club

Warrender Baths Club is a swimming club that originated at Warrender Baths in Edinburgh, Scotland, and was established in 1888. By 2013 it had 600 members, about 350 of them active swimmers training at nine pools across the city. Its swimmers have competed internationally, including at the Olympic and Commonwealth Games, and it is described as the premier swimming club in Scotland and one of the oldest and most successful in the United Kingdom. Early activity centred on water polo, and the club won the first Scottish National Water Polo Championship in 1901. In 1932 it won the Scottish men's and women's swimming team race championships and the Scottish water polo championship. David Wilkie, called Scotland's greatest ever swimmer, was among its members.
