About Cirencester Water Ski Club

Cirencester Water Ski Club was founded in 1960, making us one of the longer-established water ski clubs in the UK. Based at Manor Farm Lake (Lake 37) in the Cotswold Water Park, near South Cerney, we’ve built a strong competition pedigree over more than six decades while staying true to our roots as a family-run club.

We operate across two lakes, each with its own dedicated slalom course, plus a free-ski arena for wakeboarding and general skiing. Our on-water facilities are of international standard, and the club is widely regarded as one of the best tournament sites in the country — a reputation built by generations of members who’ve competed at national and international level.

What sets us apart is how we’re run. There are no paid staff at Cirencester Water Ski Club: every boat driven, every course set, and every piece of maintenance carried out is done by members, for members. We ski with two Nautique 200 tournament boats, kept in top condition through the shared effort of the people who use them.

We welcome skiers and wakeboarders of every ability, from complete beginners taking their first run up out of the water to competitive skiers chasing personal bests. If you’re looking for a genuinely non-commercialised club with a real sense of community — and you don’t mind mucking in — we’d love to hear from you.

Run by skiers for skiers, our club thrives on the dedication of our members. We believe in shared responsibility and collective care for our facilities and community.

We ensure equitable access to the water for all members, balancing recreational skiing with dedicated slalom time. Every member gets their turn on the glassy water.

From first-timers to seasoned pros, everyone finds a supportive environment here. We foster camaraderie and encourage growth for all skill levels.

Experience the serene beauty of the Cotswold lakes with us. From glassy early mornings launching boats to friendly evening gatherings on the pontoon, every day is an opportunity to connect and ski.
