Epping Forest swimmers enjoyed a very successful start to the Essex County Championships at Thurrock last weekend. The club saw no less than 15 swimmers make the finals of the 50m events and 8 of these swimmers made the top 3 within their age groups. Lee Baker and Marissa Posnett both took gold in the 50m freestyle, Haydon Thomas and Marrissa Posnett took silver in the 50m breast, Amelia Peddle the silver in the 50m free, and Katie Whiffin and Sophie Kenny took bronze in the 50 breast and Chris Mitchell bronze in 5Om fly. Unfortunately many of the 50m events in the afternoon were cancelled due to the mysterious disappearing water and these will now be swam at Block C and D. EFDSC finished the first Block in 10th position. Well done to all swimmers and good luck for Block B

The club is currently undertaking a full review of all personal information held on its members to ensure it is accurate, uptodate and fit for the purpose it is required. It has become apparent that not all swimmers are registering their medical conditions and drugs used, for example asthma and the need to use an inhaler/pump. It is vital that all such information is recorded and made available to the coach to ensure your health and safety and to comply with the ASA guidelines. If you have any medical condition that requires medication, or indeed not quite sure if your condition should be registered please contact Susan Whitehead who will be happy to advise.

Well that was a turn up for the books! We actually won a mini league!! With a great team consisting of 20 swimmers - some competing in their first gala - right from the beginning of the gala we were shocked to hear that we were actually scoring as we were so used to hearing the words "Epping Forest - time faulted". We were in 2nd place right from the start and things just got better and better! To hear that we were the winning club was fantastic!! Unfortunately the host club didn't realise they were supposed to provide a trophy though - we'll gladly accept a belated one when you get it! Well done everyone, excellant job!

Details are now available for the Essex County Championship and Special Age Group Relays 29/30 November 2008 on the Club Noticeboard and Essex ASA website. Competitors need to have achieved their entry times at a licenced meet within the twelve months preceeding the closing date. EFDSC will check this information as will Essex ASA. Due to the small numbers of swimmers currently holding qualifying times for this meet we will not be providing gala slips although Lee Richards Heach Coach will have entry details and entry forms. If you think you have qualifying times please contact him in the first instance. The coaches will provide details of the 9/10 and 11/12 yrs relay teams in due course. Individual entries must be returned to Alison Hollis by Sunday 12th October 2008.
