ALSAA Swimming Pool

ALSAA Swimming Pool, located within the campus at Dublin Airport, has been a part of the social, sporting and cultural fabric of the communities within our County since the late 1960’s.

 

Our pool has provided learning opportunities to generations of children and adults throughout Fingal; those who have learnt to swim, learned to compete, completed lifesaving and water safety courses, as well as those who completed their aviation industry practical swim skill courses, along with the generations of swimming teachers and coaches who have completed their studies at our facility.

 

In the absence of public swimming pools within Fingal, the ALSAA pool has been a centre of aquatic learning for over a half a century, catering to the needs of a wide range of users across the county. We have 6,700 members in ALSAA, while we also provide facilities for schools and colleges, groups with special needs, Special Olympics athletes, Master swimmers, competitive clubs, sub-aqua enthusiasts, aqua aerobics groups, parent & toddler swim groups and an endless list of other groups and individuals, in both structured and casual formats.

 

We recognise our pool as an essential and long-standing asset, absolutely dedicated to the people and communities of Fingal. We earnestly recommend to Fingal County Council that our pool building and the associated car-parking area (as outlined in blue on the attached map) should maintain its current use in the future. We strongly recommend, on behalf of our own members, as well as on the part of all our pool users, current and future, that Fingal County Council should ensure and enshrine the continued existence of our pool, by way of appropriate zoning or through any other means available to the Council.

 

We at ALSAA have provided sporting, social and cultural opportunities to and for the people and communities of Fingal, on a not-for-profit basis, for over fifty years. In an ever-changing environment, through the social and economic upheaval of the last half century, in the time of challenge that we all faced through the Covid 19 pandemic and with a focus to the challenges that lie ahead, it is our mission to continue to serve our community for the next fifty years. We look forward to achieving our goals in collaboration and partnership with Fingal County Council, as well as with all of the bodies involved in the successful, safe and sustainable operation at Dublin Airport.
