If it is something that your child would be interested in please let a member of the Committee know, as South Axholme Sharks are willing to pay the course fees for any of our swimmers attending.

Both development days will include the following workshops:

Event Volunteering

This workshop will provide an opportunity to consider what goes into delivering an aquatics event, the various different roles involved and the different skills required to ensure that an event runs effectively and efficiently.

Swimming Officiating

This workshop will cover an introduction into the world of the swimming officiating. The training opportunity will include British Swimming Timekeeper and Judge 1 training.

Timekeeper training will cover the practical aspects of what is required of a timekeeper. Judge 1 training encompasses the role and duties of a Timekeeper, Chief Timekeeper and Inspector of Turns.

Candidates will undertake some classroom based theory instruction, then gain practical experience of working on the poolside at a competition at the venue in the afternoon.

Young Leaders who attend the days will be provided with the appropriate resources to support them with event officiating volunteering.

A £5 contribution will be requested from each volunteer to assist in delivering the day. Candidates will be asked to pay this contribution once their place on the day has been confirmed.

Candidates attending the day will be given the opportunity later in the year to volunteer at other events across the region such as the Regional Competitions and National Competitions organised by Swim England.

Places on each of the development days are limited. Places will be allocated on a first come first serve basis.

Applications should be made online at: Young Leader Development Day Application Form 2020. Apply early to avoid disappointment!

Last year, South Axholme narrowly missed out on bringing home the Top Club Trophy, with 48 swimmers over the course of the day, it looked like a possibility this year.

After the first event Scunthorpe Anchor took an early lead, over the next nine events the lead passed between Louth, Pocklington (last years winners), Scunthorpe Anchor and South Axholme Sharks. By the tenth event Pocklington and South Axholme were tying. At the end of the morning session South Axholme were ahead by 26 points.

South Axholme managed to hold the lead till the tenth event in the afternoon, when Pocklington managed to gain enough points to equalize. During the rest of the afternoon the lead bounced between the two clubs. South Axholme crept into the lead four events from the end of the day and held the lead to win by 8 points.

Congratulations to all swimmers involved, it was a great team effort. Along with all the medals, 26 Speeding Tickets were achieved.

Lizzie McCallum was awarded the top 13/14yrs Top girl award, Lizzie placed one first place, three second places and a third to top the table with 25 points.
