Meeting on Mondays at 5.15pm at the Tea Gardens pool so come down and have a swim with us.
A fun event we have every two weeks is a 25m handicap swim race.
The results from the 24th November swims are:-Heat One: 1st   New swimmer Wendy Hammond (who has already improved by two seconds from her first swim).
2nd Linda Stubbs improved her time by 1.5 seconds.
3rd  Hugh Jones is swimming consistently under his handicap. Must be the extra sprint sessions working.
Heat Two: 1st was Sharon Taylor who designated the pace for the lane, in the following heat Pete Bryant swam in the same lane to exactly the same time.

2nd Kate Maddison swimming consistently, she was within 0.01 of her last time.
3rd Mal Motum feeling relaxed amid a slower heat cruised easily to third place.
Heat Three: Again proving difficult to call for the touch judges with everyone slamming the wall almost simultaneously.
1st three placings went to Chris Mobbs, David Olsen and Leon Bobako, all studiously developing sprint skills at extra sessions.
Mobbsie proved he has extra human powers by swimming exactly the same time as last swim.
