Time trials will now take place on the last Tuesday of every month.
Each time trial session will just time one stroke at 25m – this will mean that a whole training session will not be lost, yet over the year, each stroke will be timed 4 times giving swimmers an idea of progress.
The top lane will also have opportunities to try out butterfly and 50m times.
Please make sure swimmers are prompt and ready to be co-operative at these sessions as they can be difficult to organise and we want to keep waiting down to a minimum.
Get your child to look up their previous PB before the session so that they know what they are aiming for. (P.B. cards are available and previous times can be got from Kate.)
