There will be time trials taking place during normal lesson times over the coming week. This is to help the coaches prepare the teams going out in the next few weeks, and to see how the swimmers are progressing against previous personal best times. So don’t be surprised if you see a stop watch come out, or are asked to come down to do some timekeeping – you have been warned đŸ™‚
