The city of Como, deeply connected to and represented throughout the history of our club, can be described as the “cradle of swimming”.
Founded in 1919, Como Nuoto celebrated the 80th anniversary of its establishment in 1999. Awarded the CONI Gold Star for Sporting Merit in 1976, the club played a leading role in promoting swimming among young people from the years immediately following the Second World War. Some of its athletes have also competed in the Olympic Games.
What We Do
We give everyone the opportunity to practise swimming, train young people in aquatic sports and support our athletes in their competitive activities. We strive to provide a welcoming, healthy and positive environment.
During the summer season, our facilities welcome approximately 800 members, most of whom are not family members of the club’s athletes.
How We Do It
We work with passion and dedication, without personal gain, as our activities are based on a strong tradition of volunteering. We also bring expertise and commitment to our work, giving young people the tools they need to make the most of their athletic potential and competitive abilities.
Why We Do It
We believe that, as citizens, we have a duty to devote part of our time and financial resources to initiatives that benefit society and the community, even before considering their sporting value.
Since its foundation in 1919, Como Nuoto has organised swimming courses for all ages. The programme includes courses for adults and children, including preschool-aged children, private lessons and aquagym classes, held at the club’s swimming pool at Viale Geno 14, Como.
