Club Championships and Top Form Trophy Entry Forms

December 28th, 2011    Posted in General News
 

See below for entry forms for the Club Championships and Top Form Trophy. For those people that are new to the club entry forms have to be completed in order that we can have a list of swimmers that can then be seeded to allow the event to run smoothly.  Entries need to be received by Sunday 8th January at 6pm they can either be submitted to the club desk at Lifestyles or you can e-mail Andrea Mein the entry forms.  Lindsay the head coach would like as many swimmers as possible to enter.

Please note the 200m/400m Freestyle and 100/200 Individual Medley events have just two age brackets; 11 and under or 12 and over – don’t forget to enter them too!

The Top Form Trophy has no age brackets.

We will be producing a small programme for the championships, each of which will be numbered. At the end of the day we will hold a draw with the winning programme number receiving a prize. We have a number of race sponsorship/advertising opportunities on the programme itself – a mere £20 will buy you a nice advert on the programme and your name/company name listed as a race sponsor on an event of your choosing. In addition, overall event sponsorship is a possibility, please contact us below to discuss. Money raised will go towards club activities/equipment.

To be considered as the Best Boy or Girl – ‘The Coaches Cup’ - 

  • All swimmers must swim all their age group events in Sessions 1 & 2.
  • Swimmers may enter as many events in their age group as they like, however, once entered, if they subsequently withdraw from one (for whatever reason) they are disqualified from Best Boy or Girl consideration. All events will be Heat Declared winners, no Finals.
  • If you are you are 9 years or over you must swim at least one event in the Top Form Trophy, held on Tuesday 24th January 2011 at Lifestyles, as well as both the 200/400 m Freestyle and the 100/200 m Individual Medley events on Championships day. Under 9’s may swim in the Top Form trophy too.

The Age groups will be for Boys and Girls: -

8 years and under

9 Years

10 Years

11 years

12 years

13 Years

14 Years & over

Please note that the age is at 31st December 2011 as this is the 2011 championships.  There is no entry fee. Boys and Girls events may be combined to fill pool space available. Where there is more than one heat, swimmers will be seeded according to the times currently held in the clubs Hytek database.

The Head Coach hopes everyone will enter every event possible in their age group. Your Squad Coach will advise you if you have any queries.

Please note there will be limited spectating at the event. We hope to provide some bench seating and a limited amount of standing space poolside but it may be necessary for spectators to swap around to allow everyone to see their respective swimmers. Perhaps the best chance for you to see your children swim will be to volunteer on the day – we need runners, marshalls, timekeepers, judges recorders etc to ensure the smooth running of the event! YOUR CLUB NEEDS YOU! If you are a registered STO and your child is swimming we really need you to be available.
