Please can all swimmers check their kit bags for missing pullboys. These did not make it home after last Sunday's session. They are relatively new but are unnamed. If they are hiding in your kit bag please let me know click here and they can be reunited with their owner!

Blog 2905: Call for officials
A plea for officials on behalf of Derventio Excel
If you are a qualified timekeeper/official or one in training and you are free next Saturday the 2nd of July, DX are running their level 3 open meet at Ponds Forge in Sheffield.
It is not always easy getting enough officials to run an event, clubs rely on support from each other to make these work.
Expenses will be paid to those travelling up to help.
If you are free and able to help please email

Blog 2897: Winter Nationals
Whilst we are in middle of the last cycle and are hopefully fully focused on our end of season meets, I'm already planning out next year. The first cycle will end in December and hopefully with as much success as the first cycle delivered this season, with Pb's galore and qualifiers for Nationals. That being said below is the link for the times you will need to qualify for the Winter Short Course Championships. With some hard focused smart work we could get as many as 7 or 8 swimmers qualify for this event from the home programme alone, which would be an amazing achievement.

So lets step up and believe and do this!

Blog 2894: Nuneaton Gala 18th/19th June
I have received this email from Nuneaton:
Due to lessons at the pool on Saturday morning the pool have advised that we are not allowed entry until 1pm - we are trying to get the pool to allow access to coaches and swimmers earlier but this will not be confirmed until the day. Spectators will not be admitted until 1pm. Apologies for this but it is what the pool are insisting on so please bear this in mind when arriving at the pool and bear with us - we will not be allowed to admit anyone early.
BAGS ON POOLSIDE: Swimmers should only bring a small bag on poolside (pump type bag – small drawstring), this is to ensure that the room on poolside is kept free for swimmers and so that air vents are not blocked. Large bags will not be allowed poolside- swimmers/coaches will be asked to remove them.
Swimmers are not allowed in the stands or the marshalling room with bare feet so please make sure your swimmers wear suitable footwear when being called to the marshalling area for races.
WITHDRAWALS: Please notify the ladies on the withdrawals table of any swimmer who will not be swimming, withdrawals are accepted up to 1 hour prior to session start time (ie: start of warm up).
Any swimmer who does not withdraw from a race and subsequently does not swim will be automatically withdrawn from all other races that day unless there is a valid reason for the non-swim – the withdrawals team will speak to the swimmers coach if this is the case.
