SUMMER QUAD -CLUB CHAMPS
This event is a joint club championship run by Wilmslow Scorpions, Satallites of Macclesfield, Knutsford Vikings and Sandbach Sharks. This still remains an individual club event. Swimmers are competing against others in their club, but the heats will be mixed by club and by boy/girl.
This is a licensed meet, so swimmers can get official British Swimming times. It gives our swimmers the opportunity to have recorded times in longer distances of 100m's, 200m's, 800m's and 1500m's. See the Announcement by Hilary from last years event here: Tri Club Champs June 2019.pdf
There has been debate about replacing this Wilmslow's own club gala with this external licensed meet, however the committee would like to retain Wilmslow's own club gala. See discussions here: Replacing Club Galas with External Meets
