Hinckley Gala 2011

Very well done to all of our swimmers who represented our club on 22nd October 2011, at the Hinckley Gala. The results are available in the ‘Gala Results’ section and the photos are in the ‘Photo Album’.

Hinckley Gala 22nd October 2011 Results

Well done team! A brilliant set of results (again). Good swims from Joshua Watson and Matthew Buckler in their first galas. A full house of pbs from Sonia, Ashley and Thomas and all gold from Sonia, Emma, Thomas and Bethany. EVERY swimmer won a medal or swam a pb. The raft teams broke into the top 3 for the first time, but this year there no medals for this. The relays were very exciting with 10teams looking for honours. The 4 x 50m team were 0.7 secs away from bronze medals.

We look forward to competing against Tamworth Unicorns, Leicester Kingfishers, Leicester Saffron, Special Oympics North Warwickshire, Enterprise Club and CORN (??) next year.

 

The results can also be viewed in Excel format here:  Results 2011

Well done again to everyone!

Important notice about the pool hoist

Following an inspection of the pool hoist, it has been condemned. It will be replaced, but this may take some time. Therefore, at present we do not have a hoist available to help people in and out of the pool. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused, but we will keep you updated on this website to let you know when we have a replacement. Thank you.
