Competitive Swimming Clubs in Wexford

Enniscorthy SC and New Ross SC give Wexford two competitive clubs in the county's inland towns. The coastal areas — Wexford town, Gorey, Courtown — lack their own competitive clubs, meaning coastal families drive inland for training. Both clubs compete within Leinster, and the Enniscorthy-New Ross rivalry is one of the southeast's most enduring in the pool.
