About us
A Victorian Top 10 ranked Club
Ballarat Gold Swimming Club Inc established in 1998 is the youngest of the four local Ballarat swimming clubs making up the Midlands District (D16)
The Club is known at all levels of competition as an extremely passionate, team orientated swimming club. Our uniforms are bright, our cheer squad is loud and we have a huge presence in the pool. Under the guidance of head coach Mark Stahl our club is more than a sporting club, its a swimming family that nurtures successful, happy and focused young leaders.
Ballarat Gold is currently home to almost 120 competitive swimmers, life members, parents, adult swimmers and coaches.
Training is tailored to all age groups with five different training squads specifically designed to cater for the needs of each development stage.

Mark Stahl Swim School – Learn to Swim Lessons
Mark Stahl also runs the Mark Stahl Swim School, which is separate to the Ballarat Gold Swimming Club. The Mark Stahl Swim School provides a Learn to Swim program that feeds into the Ballarat Gold Swimming Club. The Swim School offers swimming lessons to all ages and will take your child from non-swimmer to ‘pre-squad’ level. If you wish to enrol in a learn to swim program, rather than training sessions with a Swimming Club, or would like further information regarding the Mark Stahl Swim School please call Mark Stahl, 0417 534 890.
