We have been asked to remind swimmers competing at the
County events at Matlock on Saturday and Sunday of the following:
Please remember to pack indoor shoes to wear on poolside. This prevents slipping, protects the feet and helps preserve the cleanliness of the venue. Poolside shoes must be worn when moving between the changing rooms and the sports hall! During the Relay gala at QLC swimmers will not be permitted off the poolside and into the marshalling area without footwear. The definition of indoor/poolside footwear is that which is not ever worn outside!
Although poolside space at Matlock is limited, swimmers should take a towel with them to dry off before returning to the sports hall. The sports hall is NOT a changing room, it is a space to relax and refuel in.
Unfortunately it has become necessary to ban ball games in the sports hall so do not take a ball -
rollers and skipping ropes are fine.
Finally the sports hall was left in an unsatisfactory state last Sunday evening, with swimmers leaving a lot of rubbish on the floor. This is not acceptable. Please use the bins provided in the hall.
