Congratulations to every one of our team of 12 twelve swimmers. As well as being our best result ever in collecting 32 medals (16 gold, 7 silver and 9 bronze) there were 18 personal best times. It was really excellent to be competitive in the relays for the first time – even the raft race! Thank you everyone who supported the team and Gurvinder’s family for helping with transport. There are certificates from the organisers for all competitors and photographs will be uploaded to the website in due course.

We now have an updated entry list for the Hinckley Gala on 25th September 2010. In total there are 15 entries. (13 confirmed and 2 unconfirmed). These are: Gurvinder Garcha, Ashley Campbell-Barker, Shannon Hearne, Archie Neil, Jordan Brace, Joshua Brace, Thomas Slater, Paul McKillop, Stephen Pearce, Mark Day, Adam Lawrence, Emma Wilson, Jane Sharpe, Sheena Baird and Helen Deakin. The two unconfirmed entries are Shannon Hearne and Archie Neil.

Joshua and Jordan are meeting arranged transport at the Leisure Centre, leaving at 11 am.

Transport has been reserved but not confirmed for Stephen Pearce.

At present, there are no more requests for transport.

If there are any changes to the above information, can you please let Sheila Carey know as soon as possible, thank you.

Good luck everyone!

We have a good entry (17 swimmers) for the Hinckley Gala on 25th September. Gurvinder’s grandfather has very kindly offered to help with transport and it is unlikely that we will need the minibus this year. However, it is important that anyone needing a lift tells Sheila so that no-one is left at the Leisure Centre. We are meeting at Bedworth at 10.45am to leave at 11.00am. Anyone travelling independently but unsure of the way can meet here too.

Well done to Joshua McFarland who swam 10 metres for his badge and certificate on 27th August 2010. Keep up the good work!

Well done to Kieran McFarland who swam 3 metres on 20th August 2010. Keep up the good work!

This year’s gala at Hinckley is fast approching. It will be held on 25th September 2010. Therefore, if you would like to enter, please see Sheila Carey as soon as possible. Many thanks.

Well done to Joshua McFarland who was awarded his 5 metre badge and certificate on 13th August 2010.

The swimming club would like to say a big thank you to the Co-Operative Helping Hearts Scheme who have kindly given us a cheque for £250.00.  The donation is very much appreciated.

After several years, Mandy Younger has decided to step down as our club treasurer.  We would like to thank Mandy for all her hard work over the years, it is very much appreciated. Mandy will continue to be a member of our Committee and we look forward to seeing her at our club sessions.

Well done to Gurvinder Garcha who was awarded his 25 metre badge and certificate on 2nd July 2010.
