Program / Schedule / Events

Updated schedule and events list now available

Follow these links for more relevant information:

The Event is being run under the present Covid restrictions in particular the wearing of Face Masks and the Pool Hall capacity (200 Swimmers and Staff)

The priority was to have no Rejections from those entered. To achieve this it has been necessary to change the Schedule of Events and split each Session into 2 Mini Sessions. In the 1st four Events in each Session we have identified a number of Swimmers who are only entered in one Event in that Session. We expect them to leave the Pool Hall after their swim. This enables us to keep within the capacity limit for the remaining Events.
