KILMARNOCK AMATEUR SWIMMING CLUB Centenary Gala Sun 19th August

We have been invited to their Centenary Gala on Sunday 19th August 2012 at Galleon Leisure Centre, Kilmarnock. We are likely to accept, so please try and keep the date free. Although we would like to win this, the maximum number of individual swims per swimmer is limited to two plus relays. I intend to swim a full team as far as possible (40 swimmers), not just to maximize points. So there will be 4 boys and 4 girls for each age group. You may get moved up! This may not be possible in some older age groups however. Therefore everyone will get one individual swim and a relay.

Warm up: 12 noon, Start: approx. 12.30pm. There should be plenty of time to get back to Rutherglen for everyone for training 16.00-18.00 to make it a full day. Team will be posted at end of July. Last time we went they gave Medals and there was a trophy, we were second beaten narrowly by Lanark. The invited teams this year are, Inverclyde, Rutherglen, Kirkintilloch and Kingston – each team will have a lane each with Kilmarnock taking 2 lanes.
