Club Champs 2016


This is the official launch of the 2016 Runnymede Club Championships.  We are holding a full programme of events with 4 sessions over 2 weekends – Friday 3rd & Sunday 5th June and Friday 17th & Sunday 19th June.

The Club Champs are open to all swimmers, whichever squad they swim in.

The Club Championships are a great way of introducing our newer swimmers to competitions in a familiar environment.  As we did last year, we included 25m events for our SwimAbility Squad and our Silver Squad members.  There are no qualifying times for club championships, meaning everyone can enter.  If you don’t have times for your swimmers don’t worry, as Rhiannan Falkus has standard entry times based on age and squad.

We also want to encourage our older swimmers and those compete more regularly to enter.  With the Championships being held at the end of swimming season, you will see how much you have progressed from last September.  This is an ideal opportunity to test yourself in different events, so why not try something different?

As you know, Club Champs won’t run without parent/carer volunteers.  There are many jobs including timekeepers and officials, organising the swimmers before events, announcing events and swimmers, collecting entrance money and selling programmes and raffle tickets (all raffle prizes gratefully received!).  If you are interested please speak to Rhiannan Falkus or one of the committee members.

Download the pack and rules below which contains the list of events per squad and age group, entry form, and schedule.

All entries must be submitted by Friday 13th May.  Any problems do ask. Rhiannan is around in the clubroom on Tuesdays and Fridays during May, or you can contact her: competitions@runnymedeswimmingclub.com

We hope that you enjoy this year’s event and wish everyone good luck.
