Last call for Sainsbury\s vouchers - please hand in to the Club desk on Friday night, to enable Sue Adams to
send off the vouchers prior to the deadline of 1st June.  We are currently on 999, which is a big difference

Hi All

The club shop will be shut for the next two Fridays, apologies for any inconvenience.

It will open again on the 1st of June.

There is a serious shortage of officials for the meet this weekend. This year the meet has been licensed at
level 3 for the first time so that times achieved will be recorded in National Rankings.

IF THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH OFFICIALS AVAILABLE THE MEET IS IN SERIOUS DANGER OF BEING CANCELLED.

Parents, if you are an official and haven\t already volunteered for even one session please seriously
consider offering your services. If you can attend for one session can you extend to two or more sessions.
Please remember that there are people who have no children swimming who are giving up their weekend to make
this meet run for your children\s benefit.

If there are any other officials who would offer their services they will be very welcome.

Please contact Kevin Sherwood on kevin.sherwood@coventry-swimming.org.uk to offer your services

City of Coventry swimmers Earl Radtschenko and Sam Richards represented the England Central team at the recent
UK School Games in London.  The multi-sport event was held in the Olympic venues so the lads got to compete in
the iconic aquatic centre.

The lads came home with some excellent results - there was Gold for Earl in the 400m Medley and Silver in the
200m Medley, while Sam claimed two Bronze medals in the 100m and 200m Breaststroke.

City of Coventrys Sian Rainsley also competed at the UK Schools games but on the athletics track.  Sian, an
accomplished runner as well as swimmer, finished an excellent 5th in 1500m.

Well done to Earl, Sam and Sian from all at City of Coventry!

City of Coventry swimmer Anita Linton has been selected for the GB Team for the Down Syndrome World
Championships in Loano, Italy.
The Championships take place from the 15th-23rd November and Anita has been named in Team GB\s 23 strong
team.

Very many congratulations from everyone at City of Coventry Swimming Club!!!

Please note, there is a birthday party in the pool up until 
5.45 pm - so do not expect to get access until after this 
time.  The pool has to be set up for the gala so warm-up may 
be slightly delayed.  Please ensure that people travelling by 
car know this.  The pool is not booked until 6.00 pm so do not 
expect to get in until this time.
 

Just a quick note to let you all know Jo Deakins had a bouncing baby boy on Tuesday morning.  The lad made his
appearance just before 1am on Tuesday morning at a healthy 9lbs 6oz.  Both mom and son are doing well.

Very many congratulations to Jo and Paul from everyone at City of Coventry Swimming Club!
