The club trained at Holbeck pool, one of the old fashioned 25 yard long pools, that were common in the City at that time. The clubs compressor was also ex WD that used to be on a Submarine. Later this was replaced with a brand new Williams & James Compressor

It then became the 115th branch of the BSAC and shortley later moved to the new International Pool in Westgate, Leeds. At the demise of the International Pool The Leeds BSAC moved to John Charles Centre for Sport.
