Please be aware that following the Government’s guidelines on the need for physical distancing we have reluctantly decided that we have to cancel our Spring Open Meet.

Whilst falling short of banning meets, Swim England’s statement last night gives strong guidance on how we should treat meets with swimmers from other clubs. We are clear that we have a moral responsibility to protect swimmers, spectators and volunteers alike.

We appreciate that this decision will be unwelcome by some. We are aware just how many hours swimmers have trained to compete in competitions.

Once again, we are deeply sorry for the decision that we have had to make. We wish swimmers all the best for the rest of the season.

Bishop’s Stortford Swimming Club hope to see you again soon in happier times
