Time Trials - Sunday 6 April

The results of the Time Trials held on Sunday 6 April can be viewed here.

These times will form the base point for qualification for the Phil Johnson Trophy.

• This trophy is awarded to the swimmer with the biggest aggregate improvement over all four strokes (Backstroke, Breaststroke, Butterfly & Freestyle) before November 2008.
• Swimmers must record a time in each of the four strokes at least twice during the year, unless a time has already been recorded in a previous year.
• Where a faster time has previously been recorded for a particular stroke, this will be used as the base point.

Humphrey Perkins - Construction Work - Access to Pool

Construction work has started on the new Sports Hall at Humphrey Perkins School.

This means that the pool will not be accessible via the normal route, nor will it be possible to park on the car park at the back of the school.

For the duration of the works, please use the car park area in front of the school hall / community centre entrance.

Access to the pool is now via the gate & steps located between the school hall & the original school building. Keep the safety fencing to your right & follow it round to the rear of the school buildings. (Blue line on map, the red areas are out of bounds)
