Tapering is not required to be done by any squad member due to insufficient milage. Therefore if competing at the weekend there is no need to miss a Friday night session. If competing at a weekend please ensure extra milage is obtained the previous or following week.

Swimmers are not allowed to bring bottles of water onto the poolside that have loose, clear bottle tops. The tops could cause danger to other swimmers by swallowing them or hurt their feet if stood on. Water bottles csn be purchashed at club shop.

Attendance at Land Training could be better, especially from the older swimmers. Both John and Andrew give uo their free time to come along and coach. All swimmers will benefit greatly from the exercises give at these sessions.

The snorkles have arrived and can be purchased from Cathy or Jean. £6 and £8.

The attendance at all early morning sessions is very poor and could be greatly improved. The club has the whole pool for these sessions, and technique and stamina work can be tailored towards the individual. If more advantage is not taken for these sessions then the club could loose this valuable pool time.
Early morning sessions are open to all silver, gold, platinum & selected Bronze squad members.

Wednesday and Friday at Garnock - 6-7.30am
Tuesady and Thursday at Largs - 6-7.30am
Saturday at Auchenharvie - 7.30-9am

To increase your water time and in consequence your performance, the above early morning sessions have been offered to you, these sessions are not being fully utilised.

To refresh your memories, the club sends a cheque to the host club for all the entries that have been entered for that meet. When the accepted entries are returned to NAASC a coloured sheet is sent to all swimmers showing accepted/rejected entries and also the amount of money you owe the club. This amount should be paid to the Treasurer as soon as possible or at least before the day of the swim. All withdrawals after this point must be paid for in full.

Reserve swims - The club does not get a refund for these swims unless the swimmer is present at the meet and unable to get a swim on the day. Reserve swimmers who do not turn up still have to pay for the entry.
