SWIMTAG operators can now direct users from their own website or social media content to a customised registration page to get new swimmers registered with SWIMTAG. Use the link www.swimtag.net/register/your-company-name to direct users directly to a landing page that loads your list of pools so that swimmers don't need to find your pools by searching our database.
For example Places Leisure could use the link www.swimtag.net/register/places-leisure 

The SWIMTAG Team will once again be attending the CIMSPA and Quest Conference on Thursday 27 February 2020, being held this year at Pride Park Stadium in Derby.

The conference is one of the most anticipated events on the Leisure Industry Calendar and this year the keynote speakers will be Tim Hollingsworth, CEO of Sport England and David Thomson an expert in behavioural change.

The SWIMTAG team will have a stand on the conference floor and we look forward to meeting participants at the event. Come and speak to us to find out more about our new Windows based software which has made a SWIMTAG installation more affordable than ever before. Chat to us about our new 2nd Generation Lane Displays, coming out in the Spring time and hear more about our latest case studies which show how existing SWIMTAG pools have managed to generate a great return on their investment and invigorated their pool offering with a SWIMTAG installation.

We also look forward to meeting existing clients, so if you are already a SWIMTAG Operator, please stop and say hello! We can chat to you about the new Windows software, which many existing pools are adopting in order to save space on their reception desks, let you see the new lane displays and if you'd like help creating challenges and boosting your SWIMTAG numbers, we can give you advice or arrange a longer chat in the days following the conference.

Svøm Langt is a Norwegian national swim campaign that runs each year with the aim of getting as many people as possible to swim a course (10,000m for adults and 2,500m for children) between 1st January and 31st March, everyone who completes the distance is then eligable to win a prize, this years prize being a holiday to Malaga!

The campaign has been running every year since 1997 organised by the Norweigan Swimming Association and has relied on swimmers logging their distance manually and being checked by staff at the pools.

In 2020 we are pleased to announce that swimmers at any of the 21 swimming pools in Norwary equipped with SWIMTAG can link their Svøm Langt entry with SWIMTAG so that their distance is automatically tracked following each swim.

Active Northumberland are the latest leisure organisation to introduce SWIMTAG after we completed an installation at Wentworth Leisure Centre in the picturesque town of Hexam in early November.

SWIMTAG came in shortly after their reception area was completely refurbished and dozens of users have already given SWIMTAG a try at the busy site.

Mark Seymour, the Head of Swimming for Active Northumberland said "We're really pleased with SWIMTAG so far. We're only just beginning to promote it and we've already got plans for our first featured challenge in February when we'll be challenging our swimmers to "Escape from Alcatraz". That combined with the January rush should see numbers soaring. What we're particularly pleased to see is the wide range of people who use SWIMTAG. It's not just triathletes who enjoy using it, we've got one chap called Ian who comes in regularly. He suffers from MS, but he doesn't let it stop him from exercising. He's already signed up to the Isle of Wight swim, the Swimmer's Mile competition and he's completed 15 swims with SWIMTAG since it was installed only 3 weeks ago, logging 10.5 hours in the water already. As a leisure provider, the value of having access to all this data is immeasurable."
