FROM ALL THE COACHES: HAVE A LOVELY AND SAFE HOLIDAY!

Here’s a full list of all the swimming sessions through to September:

After another year of good weather and plenty of exercise by the children we had a very close gala. Unfortunately we lost the trophy to Southampton by 9 points (171 to 162) but 81% of our swimmers achieved PB’s with some exceptional swimming by some of them.

Best of the girls was Lizzie who said to me “I can’t do 100 fly” and then proceeded to knock 12s of her PB. The most improved boy was Joe who knocked 9s off his 100 back (despite swimming each length alongside the lane rope!)

Boys and Girls of the gala were Joe, Lewis, Lizzie and Charis.

This was my first gala and I’d like to thank Anne for taking over the final amendments due to the catastrophe at home and let’s get the cup back next year.

Thanks to all the swimmers who took part and swam their best as usual in this event – see the training does pay off!

Cost to each swimmer £10.00 must be paid in before the above date. In an envelope with name on front please. Adults cost is £16.10 if not helping – £11.10 otherwise (this is mostly the ferry fare). NUMBERS ON COACH LIMITED FOR ADULTS.

We go to a park and play games and picnic – never rained yet but we go later if weather is awful.
Bring picnic lunch and tea and small amount of money.
Sun cream. Clothes suitable for if it gets hot.

ARRIVE AT FERRY TERMINAL AT LYMINGTON AT 12.45p.m. – NO LATER PLEASE
HOPEFULLY ARRIVE BACK AT LYMINGTON 9.00 ish; we will phone if any different.

To give everyone a break to re-charge their batteries Seals will not be operating week commencing 8th and 15th August. The last swim before the break will be Sunday 7th August and we will recommence Tue 23rd August.
