Congratulations to Josh Bailey who completed his Silver Challenge Award on 8th October. Adam Gardner, Delilah Jankowska and Marsha Marshall all completed Stage 1 of the National Plan for Swimming. Well done to all.

Changing Room Refurbishment.

As per the poster

From Monday 11th October, the toilets and showers in the pool changing room will be closed for refurbishment for 6-8 weeks. The changing area will still be open.

The dry/gym changing rooms will be available for shower and toilet usage after your swim.

At the moment we don’t know if the poolside changing room will be affected.

Due to a recent new booking in system at the leisure centre, it may be easier to book your session online, so that when you arrive, you should be able to scan your card to get through the barrier, hopefully helping to reduce the queue at reception. Sometimes it does take a few attempts for your card to scan, so please be patient.

The following instructions are for Everyone Active Passport to Leisure cardholders. If you don’t have one, or would like to know if you are eligible for one, you can find the details here:

To book your swimming session online:

Go to the Everyone Active website here:

https://www.everyoneactive.com/

Register your account and password if you don’t already have one.

Making sure you have selected Bedworth Leisure Centre, from the drop down menu in the top right hand corner, select Book/Pay.

You can then find the Disabled Swimming Session by searching by date and then book in. Please note, the small pool (training pool) and the main pool each have their own option on the menu to book in.

Hopefully, by pre booking, scanning your card when you arrive will let you through the barriers. If you are a carer, please bear with us, we need to double check how to book you in. Hopefully some of you will find this information helpful.

Congratulations to Seth Naylor who has qualified for his club t-shirt for regular attendance.

Congratulations to Zac Daffern who swam 25m for his badge and certificate.

Just to let members know, the club session on 30/7 and for the time being, is 7pm to 8pm. We can’t have our usual time at the moment, as swimming lesson times for the lessons before our slot, have had to be staggered, due to Covid restrictions. Once these are lifted, we may be able to go back to our usual time slot. We cannot say at the moment when that will be.

If you have a passport to leisure, it will have expired during the lockdowns. If you haven’t already, you will need to renew it. The forms are available on the reception desk at the leisure centre or you can download a copy here:

Due to a mix up the club session tonight has changed to 7pm to 8pm. Apologies for the short notice, we have only just found out and are trying to let as many members know as possible

We have received this message from the NASCH Committee:

National Finals Gala

The NASCH Committee have considered very carefully whether to hold the annual Championship Gala. Considering the circumstances surrounding the pandemic, it has been decided to cancel  the Gala at Leamington Spa which was to have been held on 6^th November 2021.   We all hope for better next year.

We look forward to seeing you all again!
