Hi guys,
We have been allocated a lane and a coach (Liam O' Neill) in Carlow swimming pool on a Friday night 8.45 - 9.45.
We need to know a.s.a.p of those interested in these sessions as the coach needs to book the lane a.s.a.p.
Could anyone interested please post here before tomorrow evening. We also need to know numbers in order to get a rough estimate of the cost of these sessions.
Friday night is the only time we can be allocated the lane.

Hi Tony
Is this instead of any swimming option in Enniscorthy? Thanks

Hi David,

It's Tracy here, I don't think so. We are trying to see if we have the numbers to do some sessions for those living closer to Carlow, Enniscorthy does'nt suit us as its over a 45 min drive. So travelling this distance takes 90 mins which could be used to do something else.

Sorry Tracy! Thanks for the info.

The Enniscorthy swim will be resuming Mid Oct numbers permitting.
Same coach same location. Day/time of session will be as always dictated by coach/pool availability
MORE DETAILS TO FOLLOW.

The coached swimming sessions in Carlow will cost €10 per session for a group of eight (this includes the coach and pool fee), so that is €50 per person for a group of eight.
This is a five week block but hopefully he can get the lane after the fives weeks, (the local kayak club have a lane booked for November). Sorry for the short notice but he could only confirm the dates last night.
The dates are as follows 29 September to 25 October.

Hi tracey
I can't do these this block but would definatly be up for the next block. It would be great not to have to travel.

Hi Tracy, I know Liam and he's a good guy. Not sure if you are planning this Friday, which I'll be out (at a wedding), but chalk me up if you get the numbers.

Conformation that the coached swimming begins this Friday night 27 September until Friday 25 October.

The participants are as follows:
Fintan
Lorraine
Adrian
Mike
Don
Tony (Tutts)

Waiting on another two to confirm.

Lorraine and Don are unable to attend this week so if another two people want to come this Friday please post here.

Brian Y will let you know about the next session, I will hopefully attend the next session. I am going to Liam on Tuesday and Thursday (open lessons) from this week to improve before I join the elites

I'm in - thanks for organising this Tracy/Fintan
