Sunday 25 April 2010 - Millfield

Following the postponement of the 800m / 1500m time trial on 10 January 2010 due to inclement weather, we have been able to incorporate the trials with the Masters Distance event at Millfield on Sunday 25 April 2010.

Timetable:

12.00 - 12.30 Warm-ups for Masters and 800m swimmers
12.300 - 1.30 Masters 400m Freestyle, 200m Breaststroke and 200m Butterfly
1.300 - 2.30 800m time trial for those who entered on 10 Jan 2010
2.300 - 3.30 Masters 200m Backstroke, 200m Freestyle and 400m Individual Medley
3.300 - 4.00 Warm-up for 1500m time trial
4.000 - 6.00 1500m time trial for those who entered on 10 Jan 2010

The small pool will be available for warm-up and swim down at all time other than warm-up sessions.

Hopefully this arrangement will enable the Masters swimmers to get a break between their events and possibly enter more events.

Will those who have entered the 800m / 1500m time trial please confirm to Robert Margetts (rmargetts@wcasa.co.uk) that they are either still entering or are withdrawing in which case he will destroy their entry fee cheques.
