Competitions:
Not all competitions are suitable for all swimmers.
Your coach will advise you on which you are ready for
and which events you should enter. Please look regularly
at the notice board to check the dates of league galas
and note if you are in the team. It is important that
you let either Marion or Scott know if you are unable
to swim so that a reserve can be notified. Sometimes
we are able to replace a swimmer an hour before. So
if you fall off your skateboard and break a leg!! let
us know. The newsletter and website gives details of
any changes and lets you know what is happening within
the club. Listed below are some of the meets that may
be considered for entry.
