The Stockport Metro Swim Fit Fun Gala (over 18s) is a charity event and 75% of the entry money goes to the David Hopkins Charity Foundation (see link for more information about the charity http://www.lifeleisure.net/enterprise/Charity).
If you are interested in taking part then please let us know as soon as possible. Closing date for entries is 1 June and so Kevin will need your completed forms (Get yours here) and cheques payable to Stockport Metro Swimming Club no later than Monday 28th May (that gives us a few days to get everything posted off).
There is also a post meet social event at Heaton's Tandoori if any of you want to join that. If so, just write it on your form. Time for that is approx 10.15 pm.
Looks like it could be a good night and the club would like to support it if we can.
The programme for this Saturday’s gala is available to download by clicking Here. Alternatively you may purchase a copy of the programme at a cost of £1 on the day.
Warm up is from 12.30 pm.
There were a significant number of swimmers who entered themselves but did not turn up for the first gala. This caused major disruption to the running of the event and so please ensure that you do withdraw if you do not intend to swim. Notification of withdrawals to be received no later than 9 pm on Friday 18 May by emailing

This year’s Tadpoles Galas are taking place at Grand Central Pool on Saturday 15th September and Saturday 29th September (warm up time yet to be confirmed).
These galas are graded, which means they are closed to swimmers who are faster than the published entry times and so are a really great opportunity for novice swimmers to have a taste of competitive swimming. Any swimmer who swims faster than the B qualifying time will receive a “speeding ticket”.
There are six age groups: 9, 10, 11, 12, 13/14, 15/18 years and awards will be made to the six fastest swimmers in B and C grades in each event. There are also club aggregate trophies for the overall girls’ and boys’ teams and individual trophies for the best performing boy and girl in each age group.
Entry forms and graded times are available to download by following the attached link Here.Completed forms and cheques for the entry fees (£2.50 per event) should be returned to Alison Nuttall by 23 June 2012 at the latest. Personal best times for each event entered are required.
If you require any further information then speak to your coach or email Alison Nuttall at
