Christmas Raffle

Adwick Editor

From next Thursday we will be selling our Christmas Raffle tickets. All parents can collect an envelope from the Club Room which contains five £1 raffle ticket strips. We would really appreciate it if you could sell (or buy) as many of the strips as you can, tear off one half of the strips for the buyer to keep, bring the other half back with the buyers name on it and hand in the money to the Club Room desk. These tickets will then be put into the raffle where several tickets will be drawn out and we will then post the names of the winners.

In summary:
  • Collect an envelope of tickets
  • Sell the tickets at £1 per strip.
  • One half of the strip is kept with the buyer
  • Write the names of the buyer on the other side of the strip
  • Hand in these strips to the Club Room
  • Feel free to collect more tickets if you want to buy or sell some more.

If anyone could please donate a raffle prize then it would be greatly appreciated. Any questions, feel free to ask!

Badge Night Friday 22nd November

Adwick Editor
All swimmers who are swimming 200m or more MUST have someone with them to help count. If anyone is free and willing to count those who don’t have a counter (such as those with siblings in the pool already) that would be great.
You will not be counting your own child but we will organise it that you swap with another counter.
Counters must walk straight through the changing rooms and gather by the small pool until their child is ready.
Adwick staff will count those who are doing distances of under 200m.
Swimmers doing longer distances will need a drink with them but will not be able to touch the side once started (they can tread water to have a drink!).
If swimmers are down for multiple badges, only the longest distance will feature on the list below and in the programme on the evening. That is the time your swimmer must attend.
Please be ready 5 minutes before your child’s session begins – it will allow the session to run smoothly.
For those who are not taking part in badge night (including Dolphins) – there will be no training on the 22nd.

Home Championships

Adwick Editor

Please note that on Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th November will be our annual Home Championships gala. This means that there will be no regular training on the Saturday. This is our main event of the year and we’d love to see a big turn out on the balcony. There is a £4 charge per spectator (cash only) on the balcony which includes a souvenir programme and raffle ticket.  Warm up begins at 2pm.
