Dear Croc Families,

Gosh how the season has flown by! This week of course sees our final weekend of competitions over 2 days:

Friday night is the Individual Medley Night where IM will be the only event of the evening. Nominations will close as usual at 430pm on Friday of Week 9.

• For IM there is just one option to select for each swimmer for their specific IM age group.
• Note swimmers must have qualified to participate in this event by swimming at least 1 x IM special event during the season.
• Please note that 11 years and under swim the 100m IM, whilst 12 years+ swim the 200m IM.
• This is a competition and certificates and medals will be awarded on the night.

Saturday is the Age Stroke Championships which is open to all Club swimmers. Nominations will close on Friday at 430pm for this event.

• Swimmers will swim each stroke in their age group as determined by their age at the end of the calendar year.
  • 9 years and under will swim 25m events; and
  • 10 years and up will compete in 50m events.

Note, for swimmers 10 years and older who would like to swim 25m for any particular stroke a race will be included to allow this, however please note it will not count towards Age Championships points. When nominating please add details in the “notes for coach” box please.

• This is a Championship event where medals will be awarded to first, second and third.
• Note there will be no BBQ but the canteen will be open where everything will be ½ price!

** Nominations for both events are now open at www.camphillswim.club/swim_meets or via the SwimTopia App and will close at 430pm on the Friday of Week 9. As per usual if nominations have closed and you are no longer able to swim please contact Jimmy/Mark at [email protected] or 0401077981.

This Friday (IM Night) is our last BBQ of the season! Thanks to Mick, Tim and the countless volunteers for shopping, preparing and feeding us each week!

Have you put your family pizza order in yet? Don’t forget orders close this Sunday 30 March!

Next Wednesday, 2 April we have our Crocs Season Break Up Party and Presentation Night.

For those new to the club, we have a pizza meal deal for families to collect from the pool area (around 5.15ish) with the presentations commencing at 530pm, where we celebrate each swimmer’s achievements. This is then followed by a dessert and a free play swim if time allows.

There is no entry fee and no BBQ but the canteen will be serving whatever we have left in stock.

Families can pre-order pizza’s (meal deal) as per the attached Pizza Order Form.

• You can complete the form and pay at the pool canteen; Or
• You can order and pay online at https://camp-hill-state-school-p-c-association---amateur-swimming-club.square.site/trophy-night-pizza-orders Please note if you choose to do an online order:
  
  • Can you please note your “FamilynamePizza” eg. “SmithPizza” as order reference; and
  • Can you please also email proof of payment and your order to [email protected]

Can you assist with Pizza collection? We will require several volunteers to collect the pizzas from Dominoes at Camp Hill on the evening at 5pm. If you can assist please reach out to Jimmy at [email protected] or email Deanne at [email protected]

We also ask each family to bring a dessert plate to share . We usually sit these out on a table / at the canteen after the presentations have concluded and people can help themselves. Individual servings are best and can be home bake or store bought, thank you.

As many of you would have seen we circulated a poll earlier this year to see if we would continue with trophies for each swimmer or move to medals. Overwhelmingly medals won. So, for this season all swimmers will receive a medal with their points along with a certificate of their times. Trophies will only be awarded for specific achievements.

Finally are you interested in joining the Committee? Our AGM will be held at 630pm on Thursday 15 May at the Camp Hill Bowls Club. We have many members stepping down so we need you to fill these roles in order to operate the Club. If you would like to learn more please reach out to a Committee member or email me at [email protected]
