Welcome to the Spring newsletter. Great number of

players in the club photo this year, of all ages!

Area Schools qualifier saw 6 of our players

achieve Gold medals and 4 bronze medals. Good

luck to those competing in the National schools 2/3

April.

Swimathon thank you to everyone who took part,

there were 24 swimmers! Good fun was had by all,

thank you to all the sponsors and supporters!

We are trying to give people as much notice as pos-

sible for future events! Diary dates on the left! We

would be grateful if people could let us know as far

in advance as possible if they are coming to events;

a great deal of planning and organising goes on be-

hind the scenes.

Competition dates are overleaf, we encourage all

players to take part in competitions. Don’t forget 1/2

price entry in to our own club competitions for mem-

bers!

Does anyone know business who would like to

sponsor our competition medals? The cost would be

about £150.

Grading's and theory sheets

Well done to the “minis” who are

storming through the theory sheets

and putting the rest of the club to

shame! Oliver B (age 6) has complet-

ed the entire set! 6 sheets plus the

competition sheet!

Theory sheets do help with gradings!

Theory sheets can be completed at

any time, they are designed to help

the players learn their English /

Japanese translations which will help

them with their gradings. Players

receive a certificate every time they

complete one. There are 7 in total,

including a competition sheet; the

sheets can be downloaded from the

club website or ask one of the coach-

es for a paper copy.

Over the last few years Luke has been

compiling the history of the club;

which we know started when the youth

club opened over 50 years ago.

He is up to 3 folders at the moment, if

anyone has any press cuttings or pho-

tos that they can copy and let Luke

have it would be much appreciated.
