Congratulations to our new timekeepers
11 Sep 2018
Congratulations to our new timekeepers, who qualified last night at Wilmslow Leisure Centre.
Also known as the Usual Suspects!
The course is not intended to be too onerous. The course tutor spent a short time taking us through some theory.
We then went poolside (also known as the pool deck) to practice timekeeping. A number of Group G swimmers were asked to demonstrate various scenarios we would encounter when swimmers start and finish. This part was fun, and I think we will all look forward to getting more involved in galas.
I would like to say thank you to Paul Howitt for organising the course.
If you missed yesterday’s course or are interested in becoming a timekeeper, please reach out to the club and we will organise another one.
Good Swimming and Go Scorpions!
