Head Coach Report:
Well done to all the swimmers at our Club championships.
It was great to see so many of our younger swimmers attending the event and gaining new times and it was nice to see some of our newer members swimming their first ever gala.
You have all worked really hard this season and thanks to all the parents for their time and support.
We look forward to a fun summer programme where we will spend lots of time focusing on technique and race skills so we come back even stronger for next season.
