02.01.2022 We are here!!! @ Bunnings Armadale Head on down for a sausage sizzle and drink. The weather is nice and we would love to see you :)

01.01.2022 Hey guys, check it out ..... I've made headlines again .. UWA some great laughs and great friends made along the way in tge competition realm. I'm so grateful for the journey that I'm on. Thanks AKSC

01.01.2022 Club Night last night Just a few points to remember for club nights please. ** please parents remind your swimmers to sit down in the bays and do not run to play on the grassed area / playground. Your name will be called out 3 times (or more in last nights case), if you are not present you will be scratched from your event. ... ** there is an event sheet attached to the board positioned between the 1st/2nd bay. Parents please remind your swimmers, they can check their names / event on the board. If the kids can eliminate the need to come see the Marshall that would be a tremendous help ! I usually get swamped with kids wanting to know all sorts of things. (Which I don't mind, but we would all like to get home at a reasonable time. So the quicker and smoother things operate, the better for all.). Thanks guys.
