The GIS Swimming programme works in co-operation with (but not exclusively) the High Performance Swimming programmes run by the local authorities within Grampian.

The majority of GIS athletes are coached through the City of Aberdeen Swim Team (COAST) and South Aberdeenshire Swim (SAS) programmes under the guidance of Eileen Adams and Gary Paterson respectively. The main training venues for the athletes are Northfield Pool (COAST) and Westhill Pool (SAS). All athletes receive land based training through the GIS Strength and Conditioning Network as well as Pre-habilitation work from the GIS Sports Medicine network.

These support services are complemented by Performance Lifestyle and nutritional support.
