We're off to Italy

May
09

Those going to Riccione for the Worlds in June met in the NAC for a session under experienced Masters caoch Gerry Foley on Sundat 28th April.

This year there are over 60 Masters from all over going to Riccione. This was an opportunity to meet fellow swimmers and compare notes.

Gerry set an interesting session concentrating on starts and turns, where we all loose an inordinate amount of time is needlessly lost by Masters swimminers.

If the opportunity arrises there will be another session for those going to Riccione - watch this space.
