A club above all, but above all a club.
Come be part of the team!
Our programmes have been developed with a strong focus on success and passion for the sport of swimming with the aim to retain this passion and self belief well into the future. From first strokes to first place, we believe everyone should have the opportunity to realise their potential.
Who better to teach your children the best practices than those who have been there and done it themselves?

Phoenix Aquatics, providing swimmers with the tools to achieve both in and out of the pool.
Phoenix Aquatics is one of New Zealand’s top-performing swimming clubs, proudly based on Auckland’s North Shore. Known for its strong national rankings and history of success, the club consistently produces athletes who stand on the podium at regional, national, and international levels; including Olympians and national record-holders. But success at Phoenix isn’t just measured in medals; it’s also about building character, resilience, and a lifelong love of the sport. From our youngest swimmers to our elite competitors, we foster an environment where athletes are supported to win, not just in the pool, but in all areas of life.
Leading that journey is our world-class coaching team. Head Coach David Lyles brings over 35 years of international experience, including six Olympic Games and leadership roles in national high-performance programmes across the UK, China, and New Zealand. Under his guidance, Phoenix athletes benefit from proven expertise and a clear pathway to the top. He’s supported by a passionate and skilled team of coaches who share his commitment to technical excellence, personal growth, and creating a positive, high-achieving culture. Together, they help every swimmer unlock their potential, and chase big dreams with confidence.
Our Sponsors
As a sports club, we would not be able to deliver our swimming programme if it was not for the contributions of our sponsors and grants received. We encourage you to take the time to learn more about those who have generously contributed to the success of Phoenix Aquatics swimmers.
