DLGC Boxing Day Dip 2025 (Dover) 12 noon
Want to join the POLAR CLUB? Dover Lifeguards invite you to take the plunge in our annual tradition!
Dover Lifeguard Club invites you to take the plunge in our much-loved annual tradition, the BOXING DAY DIP 2025 at 12 noon outside Dover Sea Sports Centre for a splashy, shivery and fun way to enjoy the festive season!
We have 300 Polar Club Badges to give away, so to reserve your place by pre-registering here online until 11pm on Christmas Eve. Any remaining spaces will be available at the Registration Desk on Boxing Day from 11am onwards.
On the day of the event:
✨ ALL PARTICIPANTS must come to the Registration Desk to “sign-in” (between 11am and 12noon). Participants must be aged 10yrs and over to take part, and anyone under 18yrs must be accompanied by a participating adult at all times (1:1 ratio).
❄️ Once you’ve conquered the cold and emerged victorious, head to back the Registration Desk to “sign-out” and collect your well-earned Polar Club Badge and 2025 year strip, bragging rights included!
🧊 Safety Reminder: enter the water with a buddy, take your time to acclimatise to the cold water, and stay within your depth. Water shoes may make your entry and exit more comfortable, and please ensure your choice of clothing and footwear does not hamper your ability to swim.
🔥 After your dip, get warm fast. Shed wet clothes, apply layers of warm clothes, and enjoy plenty of hot non-caffinated drinks to bring the feeling back to your toes.
💙 Whether you’re dipping for the first time or a seasoned Polar Clubber, we can’t wait to see you there. Let’s make a splash!
❤️ Please note the Dover Lifeguard Club is a registered charity, and additional donations on the day are welcome to support the continued running of the club and its operations. Our much-loved DLGC bobble hats will be on sale for £15 each.
