The times from the NASCH Gala on 2nd November 2019 have arrived. Well done to all swimmers.

The Christmas Party will be on 20th December from 7.15pm until 8.15pm in the café. Please bring a plate of food. Everyone is welcome.

Emergency Evacuation Plans have been updated for the pool. All independent swimmers requiring assistance to leave the pool have a copy of their own plans and their named assistants. The plan for all swimmers remains the same

Escape Procedure ( As issued by the Centre Manager)

1. If you hear the fire alarm which is an electronic siren
2. Follow the instructions of the Lifeguards
3. Carers are to assist the Lifeguards with clearing the pool.
4. The Lifeguards will assist anyone using the hoist out of the water
5. Lifeguards will then assist you should a full evacuation be necessary
6. Await a decision on poolside as to whether we require a full evacuation
7. If a full evacuation is necessary follow the instructions of the Lifeguards and Duty Manager

The staff are aware of our specific needs and also that some swimmers become distressed if the siren is activated.

On 8th November we had a distance swim night with some excellent results for some of the swimmers.

Congratulations to the following who were successful in achieving badge distances:

Chloe Lawrence                800m

Elliot Morrison                   1000m

Here are the plans for the creation of the Nuneaton Triathlon Club Junior Section. We had some issues with the grant application which are now thankfully sorted and we can go forward with the project.

We will be ‘kicking off’ the project on Saturday 14 December with an Open Morning at Pingles Clubhouse (10-11am) where you can come along, meet the coaches and look at the proposed programme for junior activities for 2020. You can also join the club from that date either on-line or by paper forms which will be available on the day. Membership will run until February 2021.

We will be holding Junior Training Days in Spring (March) and Autumn (September), these days being about 6 hours long and covering all the disciplines. In between these we will be holding monthly training sessions of about 90 mins. All these sessions will be based at Pingles and will be free to club members (maybe a small charge to Pinglesmanagement).

We have 2 new coaches undergoing their training in February ready to ‘hit the ground running’ next season. Both coaches have been DBS checked (as am I) and along with myself are first aid trained.

We have received funding for further coaches to enhance the coaching team so if you are interested in being part of this exciting project drop me a mail or give me a ring on 07842 283056.

Look forward to seeing you in December

Kind Regards
