    With the closure of both Merrylands and Wentworthville Swimming Centres during the Winter Season, the club has managed to secure lane space for training at Guildford Swimming Centre.

    Due to limited lane space available at Guildford Pool, it is likely that there will have to be changes made to some of the training session times. There may also be a need to make further changes to training times and days as the season progresses.

    Swimmers who intend on training during winter must complete the Winter Training Form before Friday, 25th March so that we can determine what time sessions will be held. Swimmers who do not complete this form will not be permitted to commence training without contacting the club's coach, Peter Johnston, first. This is so he can determine if there is space available in the swimmer's group.

    The training times for each group will be published on the Training Schedule page on Sunday, 27th March.

    If you will not be training at Guildford, please let us know. Training will move to Guildford on Monday, 28th March.
