All in Attitude!
This year became a true reward for our 15 years of hard work and undying passion for swimming. Winning First Place in the Overall Team Ranking for the Bulgaria Cup is not just a statistic; it is proof of the strength of a united team that breathes as one – from our youngest hopefuls to our elite athletes. The year brought us a historic breakthrough with the club's first gold medal from the Multination Junior Meet, a bronze medal from the prestigious COMEN Cup, as well as a series of 9 national records that rewrote the standards in the butterfly and relay events. The total of 435 medals won at national championships and tournaments is a bright testament to our school, which continues to inspire and create champions not only in the pool but in life.
First Place in the Overall Team Ranking among all swimming clubs in Bulgaria for 2025. This top spot demonstrates that the club possesses a proven methodology for creating champions, rather than relying on random talent. This success is the purest form of teamwork.

In 2025, the preparation process at NSK "Olimp" moved to a qualitatively new level. We successfully conducted a series of club camps at the high-altitude base in Belmeken, in Sandanski, and in Burgas. However, a significant moment this year was the participation of our athletes in the centralized camps with the National Team. The exchange of experience with Bulgaria's elite and the participation in national team camps inevitably raised the criteria, intensity, and professionalism of our internal club camps as well. During the camps, we focused on:
We organized a celebratory event to honor the journey we have traveled. We marked the transformation of our club into the largest swimming club in Bulgaria. The celebration was shared with our highly qualified coaching staff and the close-knit community of parents, who are an integral part of our success. The hundreds of medals and records are important, but our greatest victory is the family created.
Swimming Skills Level Exam is our traditional event where young swimmers earned their "colored bracelets," symbolizing their progress. This system motivates children and teaches them persistence.
