Here are the results from the sports day at Rugby on 4th May 2025. Well done everyone.

A memorable night for all the wrong reasons.

Gurvinder dislocated his knee on poolside. Immediate help from everyone  in particular Hayley, Sally-Anne, Phoebe,and pool staff Brad and Connor made sure that there was no further damage. With no prospect of an ambulance for a few hours his family took him to A & E. He was treated fairly quickly and his grandad Kuldip reports that he was home last night with just some swelling. Kuldip sends his sincere thanks to everyone. 

Thank you for the multiple emails in reference to parking on 4^th May

From Monday 2nd June, we are having essential works done that will affect our car park access for approximately 3 weeks.

The car park will be single-lane access during the day, managed by a traffic marshal. Adult & child bays will be unavailable during this time.

The centre remains open as normal – please allow extra time for parking.

Thanks for your patience and understanding during this time.

URGENT – TO ALL WHO ATTENDED THE RUGBY GAMES.

If anyone gets a £100 parking charge, please DON’T PAY IT and let Sheila know. Instructions should follow on Tuesday 27/05. Thank you.

EDIT : Please send copies of the paperwork to Sheila, who will forward them to the organiser to get them cancelled.

Results from Rugby Games are attached.

Sam Lamb has been missed off  Event 3. He has a 3rd place plaque to come.

Jo Patterson was sent off on 47 secs instead of 67 in Event 16 so his net time should be 68.38.

Many congratulations to the following swimmers who beat their entry times by more than 15%. You will all get a super fast swimmer certificate for your efforts.

I am still trying to get the results from the NASCH gala. We still do no have funding for pool hire for our gala. I will continue to try but we may have to pay for it ourselves this year. 

Welcome to Dominic Patterson (Josiah’s father) who has signed up as a helper. Many thanks.

Congratulations to Lainey Milligan and Chantele Lindley who have completed  atonal Plan Stage 4.

Thank you to everyone who has returned trophies. There is just one left to comee in and then they can go for engraving and the repair.

It is very disappointing that the NASCH results are still not available. I will keep asking.

Sheila

We have started National Plan today with some immediate graduations. Adela Witman and Lainey Milligan both passed their Stage 3. Matthew Lewis passed his Stage 4.

I still need the following trophies for engraving
