Please arrive wearing swimming costumes if possible to limit use of the changing rooms.
Thank you so much to everyone from our club who has already, and continues to volunteer to support these galas – they can’t run without you. Please let us know if you are available to help with any roles (officiating, timekeeping, coaching) for the 10th.
If swimmers need to leave the poolside for any reason please tellyour coaches where you are going. Wear your club kit and cap if possible. Bring something to eat (snacks – fruit, nuts, etc.), an extra towel, a bottle of water/plenty to drink, spare goggles and a hat if you have them and if you take medication please make sure you
have this with you. Loads more info here about what you might need especially if this is your first gala.
