Well done to Josh Bailey and Seth Naylor who have moved up the Sprint rankings.

Two dates have been added to the diary. The last swim of 2021 will be on Friday 17th December from 7pm to 8pm. The first swim of 2022 will be on Friday 7th January from 7pm to 8pm. Due to our swim session being at the later time, the committee have decided not to hold a Christmas party this year, as it will probably be too late for the younger children to attend. Christmas gifts will be available for our members during our final swim session of the year on Friday 17th December 2021. We are hoping to hold our presentation evening in the new year. The committee are aware that the time change is effecting some of our members, especially the younger ones, being able to attend and we will keep you informed if and when we are able to go back to our original time slot.
