Update, 12-Mar-07: The temporary suspension of new memberships has now been lifted following the introduction of increased capacity in swimming (see Beginner Swimmers) and hence an easing of the crowded morning swimming sessions. The temporary suspension of new memberships was necessary in the interim in order to prevent an exacerbation of the crowded lanes problem. Thanks to all existing and new members for your patience. Many thanks to Sinead & Noelle from the training committee for their work in sourcing more lane capacity and to the swim coaches for providing more coaching. We would ask all members to observe the new swim setup which provides for 2 swim sessions a week for each member (i.e. each member should be in either B1 (Tue, Sun), B2 (Fri, Sun), I1 (Tue, Fri), I2 (Tue, Thu), or A (Thu, Fri)). We will be introducing a list for coaches who will know who is in what group and will tick off names, so please only turn up on your designated 2 days to be fair to all members. Thanks, Mark.
Hi All,
Please note that due to the club reaching swim capacity
restrictions, we are postponing accepting new full memberships for the
next couple of weeks as we cannot guarantee availability of swim
coaching sessions to potential new members due to the already-full swim
lanes. We are working to expand the availability of swim coaching with
a view to accepting more full memberships once training sessions have
been expanded. Affiliate membership is still available, but any new
full membership forms received after Friday 16th Feb will unfortunately
be returned. Existing members who have not yet renewed their membership
for 2007 are asked to do so as soon as possible. We will accept new
full memberships as soon as possible once training sessions have been
expanded.
Thanks for your time,
The Piranha Committee
