As many of you will know and for our new swimmers/parents are finding out swimming Gala’s are a mini minefield to navigate at times.

As we have reached our first gala of the new season I wanted to put a post together which will give you the dates of the galas we are attending as a club and when entries need to be completed for them and hopefully this will make things a little clearer.

BCM Greater Manchester Autumn Meet!!!

This takes place this weekend 1st and 2 Oct at the Wigan Life Centre.

As always we ask that if possible our swimmers wear club hats (if worn) and club t-shirts whilst on poolside.

You will find the warmup times and accepted entries HERE!

Please make sure swimmers are on poolside with the club coaches and team managers 15 mins before their warmup time so they are ready when warm up begins.

As always we suggest that a couple of towels are brought, as well as appropriate footwear, snacks/lunch for throughout the day and please make sure your swimmer has plenty of fluids to drink.

Please remember there is only one warmup for the Saturday.

It is also important to remember that the gala organiser has asked only one spectator per family due to the amount of swimmers who will be attending!
