Kimberley Pram Race

Hi guys n galas, I am going to be entering the Kimberley pram race on the 22nd of July (Sunday)
I am after any ideas on how to make our 'pram' water themed. I am just asking for as many volunteers and supporters before the 22nd and on the day to collect money in buckets if anyone fancies helping out.

I need to know as soon as possible if you can help.

Many Thanks

Chris Hemstock.

Additional Friday Night Sessions

We have extra Friday night sessions over the coming weeks at both Loughborough and the Nottm University Pools for squad only.
Lane 5 Improver session swimmers may be offered the chance to join these sessions if there are spaces available.
We intend to take the opportunity to run some time trials at these sessions and have devised a small program to show what we have planned.




Date - 06/07/12
Loughborough - 100m/200m time trial IM
Nottm Uni    - General squad 25m session

13/07/12
Nottm Uni  - 25/50m time trials Butterfly & Freestyle

20/07/12
Loughborough - 100m/200m time trials Butterfly & Freestyle
Nottm Uni - General squad 25m session

27/07/12
Nottm Uni - 25/50m time trials Backstroke and Freestyle

03/08/12
Loughborough -100m/200m time trials Breaststroke & Backstroke
Nottm Uni - 100m/200m time trial IM

10/08/12
Nottm Uni - 25/50 m time trials Breaststroke and Backstroke

This program allows for all distances and all strokes (up to 200m) time trials in both 25m and 50m pools, however those attending should be aware that there will be some waiting around for swimmers in between their timed swims so they will need t shirts to stay warm and will need to be patient.

Where we have two sessions on the same night, some swimmers who put their name down for one session MAY/WILL be asked to attend the other session instead.

Please also note, due to the pool regulations numbers of swimmers are limited.  Our main target
for the time trials are swimmers who have 1 or 2 county qualifying times for 2013.
