Effective from 3rd September 2018, the details of the new/revised Hewett sessions can be found below:

Day Time Coach Change
Tuesday 9pm to 10pm Josh 1 hour pool time instead of 45 minutes
Thursday 6.00am to 7.30am Swan Coach Slight change to time – we still share this session with Swan
Friday 9pm to 10pm Josh New pool time
Sunday 8am to 10am Pat Session moves to earlier time of 8am from 9:30am
Sunday 5pm to 7pm Tina* Session extended from 1 to 2 hours (however swimmers can just do 1 hour)

*Tina is still looking to do both a technical session and a traditional training session on the Sunday evening.  We will be looking to publish Tina’s technical focus for a particular week in advance to give swimmers who are interested in a particular area to attend the relevant session.

The full updated training session timetable can be seen on the Training page.

Results for Eastern regional open water championships 2018

8 EAST swimmers took part in the Eastern regional open water champs on a hot Sunday at Whitlingham Broad.

Four swimmers took part in the 3k event with David Boyce and Ray Kirby coming 2nd and 3rd in the 40-49 male age group while Phill won bronze in a very competitive 50-59 age group. Josie put in another solid swim in the women’s race winning the age group gold although the field was a little sparse! Three swimmers swam the later 2k event with Jon G having a great swim to win silver in the men’s 50-59 event while Emmeline and Jane Pye both claimed gold in the women’s race for the 30-34 and 50-59 age groups respectively. Harry C was the only EAST competitor in the final race of the day, the 5k although he was swimming under the Great Yarmouth flag for the day. He rounded off a successful day with bronze in the very competitive 20-24 age group. Full results in the link below:

Results from British Masters Championships 2018

Five EAST swimmers made it down to Plymouth for this year’s British Masters and did the club proud with some fantastic swims. Medal count was 12 golds, 3 silver and 4 bronze, which is amazing given that there were only five swimmers. Leading the way were Catherine, Debbie and Pat who between them won all the club’s 12 golds with Debbie and Pat coming home first in every race they entered. The men didn’t do to badly either with Chris and Nick picking up two and three medals respectively.

Swimming @ NHSG on Fridays from 27th August 2018

Advanced notice that Norwich High School for Girls are planning to carry out a major pool refurbishment later this year.  They will be closing their pool to all users from the 27th August to the beginning of January 2019. This means there will be no EAST Friday evening  training sessions at the NHSG pool during this period.

Further details, including any possible alternatives, will be available nearer the time.
