Swim Club Gala – 2024

It’s the Swim Club gala on Thursday 14^th March all club swimmers should attend from 4pm.  This is the highlight of the season and a great night for the swimmers to cheer each other on and enjoy some race experience. Everyone is encouraged to swim their best.  There is a participation award for everyone, medals for each stroke in age group and trophy for the top girl and boy in each age group. 

Other details please note for swimmers (and discuss with them!),

• Warm up will be from 4-4.20pm.  Racing will start as soon as we can after this!
• Swimmers will swim in heats with other children the same speed as them (not necessarily the same age).  When medals/trophies are awarded the swimmer will be back in their age category!
• There will be judges on poolside – the swimmers have been training hard for this night so if the rules of the strokes/starts/turns/finishes are not followed then the swimmer will be dqd (disqualified).
• Swimmers should bring swim kit/shorts/t-shirt/poolside shoes

Please could we have parent help,

• Providing baking/snacks
• Around poolside with time keeping etc.
• If your child isn’t able to compete let Cath know asap (this allows us to plan the heats of races so they’re all full and we can run the event to time)
