Hi all,
August time trials will take place tomorrow night at 7pm!
WHAT ARE TIME TRIALS ABOUT
Those new to the Club and wondering what does that mean. Time trials are a Club run event where the swimmers from each squad take part in 2 timed swims in a safe, fun, supportive and familiar environment. It’s also one night where all the squads are at the pool together. Also our younger and new members will get partnered with a buddy to help them through the evening as it’s a bit different from a normal training! It’s a fun an exciting night for our swimmers.
EVENTS
Swims are decided at coaches discretion and the decision will be made based on if swimmers require an updated time for a specific event to prepare for upcoming meets.
ALL SQUADS: 50 fly, 50 back, 50 breast, 50 free
WHAT TIME DOES IT START AND WHAT DO I NEED?
Warm up for everyone starts at 7:00pm
Please bring an extra towel, a t-shirt for poolside, a filled water bottle and a small snack for between your races. Also make sure you bring along your best shouting voice to cheer on your team mates.
Can all squads be poolside and ready to get in the water for 7:00pm so we can get the warm ups started.
TIME KEEPERS
We are always looking for helpers to work the stop watches. If you fancy having a go, please make your way to the canteen area next to the pool and speak to one of the Committee members. Having at least one time keeper per lane is vital to the running of the time trials. The swimmers work so hard in training to prepare for these nights. Without time keepers it doesn’t happen.
If you have questions or unsure then please get in touch either by speaking to a Committee Member or Coach in the canteen area or by dropping the Club a message.
Thanks,
The Coaches
