Unfortunately we have had to cancel our annual Peter Pink Gala this year as we couldn't get enough teams to take part. We have still kept our pool booking though, so on the 10th September we will be holding 100m time trials at Hucknall 6.00p.m for a 6.30p.m start -squad swimmers only. Entry forms will be at the desk in the next few days. On Sunday 11th September at Heanor we will be doing 50m time trials - squad and Lane 5 improver swimmers. Once again, entry forms will be at the desk in the next few days.

Speedo 500m Open Water Swim
Saturday 23rd July saw Adam Gregory compete in The Speedo Big Swim At the National Water Sports Centre at Holmepierpoint, Nottingham.
Wet Suit on, weather conditions were good and with a Water temperature of 17.5 degrees, he dived in with the ducks at 3pm for the 500m race.
The first 50m was the hardest as he adjusted to the cold, the weed on his feet and the choppy water but gradually his head went down and a steady stroke was achieved and a time of 11min 56 Secs was recorded, this gave an overall 12th place finish.
A big well done to Adam
p.s If anyone else in the club took part in the big swim or had a go at the taster open water session let us know how you got on.
