Club Natación Metropole

What Club Natación Metropole does

Club Natación Metropole is a private social and sports entity founded in 1934 and headquartered at Paseo Alonso Quesada s/n in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain. The club operates a single-site, year-round multi-sport facility comprising heated swimming pools, a gym, tennis and paddle courts, and event halls, and serves approximately 5,189 member-owners (socios y socias) plus around 800 federative license holders across eight competitive sports sections — swimming, artistic swimming, water polo, diving, triathlon, judo, fencing, and lifesaving/socorrismo — together with ancillary fitness, tennis/padel, athletics, hiking, and aquatic activities for all ages.

The core technology is physical sports infrastructure rather than software: an owned facility complex supported by a member portal at cnmetropole.provis.es for enrollment, course sign-ups, and account management. The club supplements this with seasonal programs including a swimming school (Escuela de Natación), summer courses (Cursillos de Verano), the Metrocamp summer campus for children aged 4-14, and event/venue rentals (Salones y Eventos).

The business model is recurring membership-fee driven (subscription/recurring), augmented by training-section fees, summer camp revenue, federation-supported event hosting, and event-venue rentals. Distribution is direct via the club's website and member portal; marketing runs through the website, Instagram (@cnmetropole), earned media, and on-site events. The club closed its last fiscal year with a €1,373,401.05 profit after taxes per General Assembly-approved annual accounts and is governed by a Junta Directiva led by President Antonio Santana. Strategic positioning emphasizes its 91-year heritage, Olympic/world-champion alumni, and ongoing role as a host venue for Real Federación Española de Natación national championships.
