Tour De France Sweepstake

Bedworth Disabled Swimming Club is running a sweepstake on the winning team in the Tour de France.

Tickets are available to purchase for £1 for each attempt from the club or can be downloaded from the links below.

Completed tickets should be returned to Sheila Carey before 27th June when the draw will be made. Each ticket will draw one of the 22 teams randomly.

The draw will be published on the web site before the racing commences with the first stage in Leeds on 5th July.

It is then possible to follow the progress of the teams until the final sprint on the Paris Champs-Élysées on 27th July.

This should make exciting viewing for three weeks for a minimum of just a £1 entry!

Best of all you are helping to support the swimming club each time you buy or sell a ticket.

Please note there is no limit to the number of tickets that one person can purchase.

T-Shirts and Hoodies

T-Shirts

Our new t-shirts have arrived! They are in Carolina Blue, with a white logo on the back.  (See photo). This was the most popular choice of colour and position of the logo when we asked our members. All of our members will get a new t-shirt free of charge. We also have new helper t-shirts in the same colour.
