See temporary timetable for September, if you have any questions please ask!
I hope you have enjoyed your summer and are now ready to return to full on swim training!
We start our new timetable this Sunday 6th September with the first Riverside session. The technique sessions start at Thorpe on Tuesday but Town Close doesn’t start until the end of the month (due to the new plant room not being finished). The new Sportspark sessions are already in full swing.
Below are details of each session to help you plan your new timetable.
As previously mentioned, the booking system will be paramount in ensuring all swimmers are able to train at the rate they are accustomed to. Everybody will be asked to be considerate when booking sessions and cancel as far in advance as possible. We have also activated the waiting list option on the booking system.
We will monitor the situation and as far as we are able, and will make any adjustments as needed once we see how things are going.
