Club Night on 5th October - Now for Something Completely Different

Greetings all swimmers!

For October club night on Wednesday 5^th October we are going to do something a bit different. It will be a little bit fun, a little bit exciting and also a little bit serious (but not that serious). So it can be anything you want it to be.

Wednesday 5^th October is going to be a dedicated relays night.

The relays on offer are the same relays that you would find at a Masters swim meet. In other words: mens, ladies and mixed 4 x 50 Freestyle and 4 x 50 Medley.

It is all in age groups, the same as it would be at a Masters swim meet.

Sounds serious doesn’t it? But it doesn’t have to be. Come along and have some fun and see how fast your team can go.

To assist with organization we want as many entries in advance as possible. So ring, text or email your mates and ask them to join join your team. You could even do something as old-fashioned as talking to them at training.

Then, please fill in an entry form when you know what teams you have. One entry form please per event you are entering. Please also check with your team members that they want to be on your team before entering them.

Enter your teams by Sunday 26^th September by giving the entry forms to Lapo or Deryn or by emailing them to deryn@bitsnbobs.co.nz

If you don’t have teams, well that’s all good – just show up on the night and we will sort you into teams. You can also indicate on the entry form that you will be coming as a swimmer with no team and this will help us in advance to organise for you.

We are also going to need helpers – timekeepers and whatnot. If you can help but don’t want to swim, please indicate that on the relay entry form. There is a grey box at the bottom of the entry form where you can indicate that you are a helper rather than a swimmer.

Oh yes, in case you are wondering what this is about, November is the month for the National Masters Swim Champs so this is a chance to practice with your teams (that’s the serious bit) but if you aren’t going to Nationals then come along and have a hoot (that’s the fun and exciting bit).

Entry form is below (as a jpg and you may need to blow it up). Print out as many as you need. This message and entry forms are also poolside and coming to you by email. If you need more pleas just ask Deryn or Lapo.
