New Club Kit
We have just received the first batch of new club kit items, the hoodies are already a huge hit and look really smart, to follow are new T-bag shirts and shorts for poolside, track suits, drinks bottles, swimming holdalls, swim bags, T-shirts and swim caps. We have tried to make things just a little bit more cool and trendy for you young dudes out there
If you would like to order any items of kit there is an order form and price list here which you can complete and then give to Emily at Wellington pool. The online shop should be available soon.
Novice Gala
On Saturday 17th May there is a novice gala being held at Wolverhampton Central Baths. Novice galas are aimed at younger swimmers that have little or no competitive experience, the gala is ran in the same way as a normal gala but a lot slower and a little more 'friendly'. The warm up is at 5:30pm and the age groups are 9,10,11 & 12.
If you have never entered a gala before this type of thing is a great way to start and it's a lot of fun. If you would like to enter please let Anne or Kath know and they will sort you out with the necessary forms.
Members Area
Wellington Swimming Club web site now has a members area, as long as you are a current WSC member you will be given access, the members area means that we can keep secure things like personal bests and we control who gets to see our event photo's. If you would like access please email with your required username and password.
