Luton BSAC was formed in 1960, the club can be found on a Thursday night at Wardown Park Swimming and Leisure Centre on Bath Road off the main A6 in Luton.(See map for more details). Use of the pool is from 9.00 P.M. until 10.30 P.M, there is a desk setup at approximately 8.30 to deal with diving related inquires. Afterwards we all retreat to the bar upstairs to socialise, plan diving trips, outings and social events. Luton BSAC is a diving club with a good social scene for those non-diving partners or friends. Pool use is not solely restricted to diving on a Thursday night, friends and family are welcome to join in for a relaxing swim or just a drink at the bar.

There are many good reasons why prospective divers should learn to dive in a club environment.
