Scottish Nationals – Royal Commonwealth Pool, Edinburgh Thursday 28th June – Sunday 1st July

With the Scottish Nationals being held this summer in Edinburgh we are once again giving our swimmers the option to travel with the team for the duration of the meet.

We are proposing to stay at the Pollock Halls, which is student accommodation situated next door to the pool. Due to the early start on the Thursday morning we will be leaving the day before and staying in Edinburgh on the Wednesday night(27th June)

The approximate cost for the 4 nights will be in the region of £250-£300. This includes all meals, travel and accommodation.

Before I book the rooms I need to know how many swimmers we will be taking. Unfortunately Pollock Halls require the payment for the rooms on booking and I am conscious that if we don’t book soon the rooms will fill up.

I appreciate that entry forms are still to be handed out so if you go to the following link you can see a list of the events and entry times :

http://www.scottishswimming.com/81/national-event-info

Could you let me know by Thursday 24th May if you would like to reserve a space and travel with the team. Please note that by reserving a space you are also committing to pay for the accommodation.

Please email me on This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it to reserve your space.

Special mention must go to Anna Fleming who won all six events that she entered and also broke the Club, West District and Scottish Age group 11 year old record for the 100m freestyle with a very fast 1.02.30. Well Done Anna - From Dave Hill

Also thanks to the volunteers and coaches for their support for the team.
