Our swimming competitions are set in January at our AGM. They usually fall at the same time every year. Here are the races and time of the year to expect them.
Each race has a championship and a handicap element. So if you are competing for an overall best time or to beat your own best time, these races are good for you.
After every race, we meet up at the local pub for some refreshments and a catch up.
