Important information - Covid 19
Posted by lisa on 21 September
We are aware that there has been a confirmed case of Covid 19 at South Axholme Academy, and that some children from various year groups have been asked to isolate until the 5th Oct.
As with anyone isolating swimmers must NOT attend the swimming sessions held by South Axholme Sharks.
If you could let us know if this affects your child, we would be grateful.
Thank you for your cooperation at this time.

An email was sent to all swimmer on the 14th August explaining that Sharks were in discussion with Crowle pool, with the possibility of securing pool time there, until Epworth Pool re-opens.
All swimmers who expressed interest in " Returning to Swimming" have been allocated 1 session per week, This is due to the high demand, numbers allowed in the pool at one time and the limited pool time. Hopefully swimmers will be able to increase sessions in the near future.
Swimmers must complete and return (paper copies) on the first session:
The Health Survey
Return to Training
Sign the Return to Swimming Guidance
and make a payment via BACS.
Thank you for your continued support over these unusual times.

Halloween Meet 2020 - Cancelled
Posted by Sally on 31 July
It is with regret that the committee have made the decision to cancel this year's gala.
After a lot of consideration, and the current restrictions due to Covid-19, we do not see how it would be possible to keep to the social distancing measures and run the gala to the same level as previous years. As of yet Swim England have not issued any regulations regarding competing or reinstated the licences.
We believe this decision is the best for everyone concerned.
Thank you for your continued support and we will let you know any information regarding returning to training/competing when we have it.

Important Information from Epworth Pool
Posted by Sally on 09 July
Please see below information from Epworth Pool following tonight's Government announcement.
We are aware of the announcement from the government that swimming pools can re open on 25th July.
At this moment the current restrictions mean that we are not in a position to re open on this date.
We need to ensure that not only our staff and customers are safe, we also need to ensure the long term future of Epworth Swimming Pool.
Running the pool at reduced capacity is not financially viable, and would put a huge strain on our community facility.
We are working with other pool operators, and will be monitoring any pools that do re open.
We will continue to review our position once the government issues its full guidance document.
We understand that this may be frustrating but we need to minimise the financial impact this will have on our pool.
We as a committee support the pool in their decisions and are working closely with them to ensure we have a pool to come back to and that it is done safely.

Return to the Pool Guidance Released 15th June
Posted by lisa on 18 June
After a meeting with the Manager and staff at Epworth Pool, a survey which we would like each swimmer to complete and return, (please ensure their name is on it) has been emailed out.
As yet there is no guidance from the Government as to when pools will be able to open or how. Rob Jenkins has things set in place ready to open but this will only happen when he feels it is safe and viable to do so.

As a club we need to ensure all measures are in place as set out by Swim England and that we have everyone's best interests in mind. Training may not resume as soon as the pool opens but everyone is doing their best.
To make it clear as are many things at the moment, training will not be like it used to be and we will issue guidance nearer the time as regard to expectations and rules,it is likely to begin with swimmers will be allocated a time and a lane and they will have to stick to that for an allotted period. The squad system for the time being will not be used to allow siblings to swim at the same time.
Parents will not be allowed in the building/viewing area unless volunteering.There will be no swapping and changing due to tracking purposes.
We understand things are vague at the moment and that the swimmers want to be back in the water, but until we feel it can be done safely we have to wait.
To give a bit of notice we will need parents help at training sessions to ensure the safety of our children, there is a section at the end of the survey to fill in if you are willing to help, this will also determine how many sessions etc we are able to run when we can.
Thank you for your patience and support during this time, the full guidance from Swim England is available to read on their website.
We do need your responses to gauge the timetable upon return, if we don't receive anything your swimmer may not be allocated a slot.
If you have not received an email please contact: southaxholmesharks@gmail.com
