Club Championships

Hi all

As per the post from a fortnight ago, we will be running the club championships on Saturday 3rd June. Sign-up is now open, and the link can be found below.

Arrival from 7:00am
Warm-up will commence at 7:30am
Racing will commence at 8:00am

We will be adding a 15+ age group, but we would still like to utilise the senior swimmers for some marshalling etc. as it is a great opportunity for the younger swimmers to get to know the senior swimmers in the team. There are few opportunities for the more experienced swimmers to pass on their knowledge and experience, and I would hate to lose this chance.

We will be running a BBQ like last year, and Janice will be sending out a volunteer google form shortly to help with this (as well as some time keeping etc).

Also, we would appreciate it if last years winners could start to return their trophies to the office please.

Thanks

Coach Kris
