Congratulations to Chloe Cook on passing the Club Timekeepers Course
Well done Chloe
Swimming
is a voluntary sport and therefore the availability of helpers
is extremely important to us. Within the club itself there
are many activities where you can help out, officiating is
one of them and is an area we must develop to ensure that
our swimmers have the necessary support at local leagues and
opens.
Officiating
is usually very enjoyable and satisfying, if you would like
further information please speak to Steve Mullinder or take
a look on the ASA website; ASA
