I’m just writing to let you know that there are still tickets available for the FINA World Diving Series to be held this weekend (May 1-3) at the London Aquatics Centre, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. I thought this might be of interest to your club members (if they haven’t already got their tickets!)
The elite level competition will feature the top six in the world in each of the synchronised events and the top eight in the world in the individual events. There will be a strong British contingent – expected to include Olympic bronze medallist Tom Daley, double Commonwealth Gold medallist Jack Laugher and European Champion Sarah Barrow – in all 10 events.
Tickets are available here from Ticketmaster, and start at £10 for Adults and £7 for Under-16s (plus booking fees). There are two sessions per day So if you’re keen to see Tom Daley in action on the 10m Platform on the Sunday then get your tickets now!
You can also find the full schedule of events for the weekend here.
We will be sending the entries to this year’s Boldmere Water Carnival off on tomorrow night (Thursday 30/04/2015).
This swimming open meet will be held on the 4th and 5th of July at Stechford – an Open meet is where you choose which races you would like to try (at £5.75 an event) as long as you can meet the qualifying time – click here for more details on this weekend.
Any queries – please talk to your coach as soon as possible.
Why not come along and have FUN at the Water Carnival!
We have been asked to remind all members that the disabled car parking spaces at the pools are meant for the people they are aimed at helping. Please do not park in them unless you are entitled to do so.
Congratulations to three of PBSSS’s own Teachers – Kavita Gaddu, Daniel Smith and Abigail Turner – who all recently attended and passed (on the 10th April 2015) the ASA Level 2 Swimming Teachers Course. A big well done from all at Beeches swimming club 🙂
