Competition

You will be selected by the Head Coach to represent the club at events and galas. Invites will be sent to you prior to the event.

There are always warm up sessions before the event to prepare you to race.

Be part of the team, stay with the team on poolside. If you leave for any reasons you must tell the Coach/Team Manager where you are going.

Make sure you go to the marshalling area in plenty of time, take your hats and goggles etc. with you. Always try to have a spare set of goggles and a hat.

Support your team mates because everyone likes to be cheered on.

We ask that you wear your club hat when representing the club.

After your race come back to the Coach/Team Manager for feedback.
