City of Glasgow Swim Team

We have received the following request from West District, if anybody wishes to volunteer, please contact John directly.

The District Regional Squad Programme is running in 4 x "areas" this year with approx 180 swimmers taking part.

I have 2 x Team Managers who have volunteered to work with the DRP this year but I need at least an additional 2 x Team Managers from the West District Clubs to help run these Training Days, with 1 x Team Manager per Squad.

West District Team Manager - Role Description

I would plead (on bended knee, even prostrate on ground !!) to anyone in your Clubs that either have experience from helping at Training Camps etc. or are just interested in helping the swimmers have a fun day and ease the pressure from the Lead Coaches to allow them to coach and not worry about the management and admin for the days, to volunteer.

If I get more than 2 x volunteers, then all the better as it will allow more people to get experience and will share the load.

Please circulate this as widely as possible and remember if everyone thinks that someone else will do it then NOBODY DOES IT and it will be the swimmers that will suffer.

I made it clear to all Clubs when we started down this inclusive DR Squad Programme that it could not be supported centrally by me and a few others and that its success was dependant on the involvement of the Clubs.

Anyone interested should phone me on 01698 825507 or email on This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

I appreciate feedback by next Wed 19th Sept to allow for planning.

Regards

John
