Warm up on Saturday 12, Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 November starts at 5.00pm so please be on poolside ready to start your warm up by then.

For the younger swimmers this provides them with the opportunity to take part whatever their ability or age in this annual competition cheered on by family and friends and for the older swimmers this is another opportunity to achieve County qualifying times or improve their personal best times whilst competing with their teammates in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

We are also extending an invite to all Lydney Swimming Club members so they can get the opportunity to compete.
