Request
Please can we have more advanced warning of training taking place during school and bank holidays to enable us to plan better and arrange family time.
Response
From the start of the next swimming season 2023-2024 we will provide a calendar of Training Season dates detailing holidays when there will be no training or only a Skeleton Training Programme.
Request
Would it be possible to have sessions or clinics that work on starts, turns, a particular stroke.
Response
Coaches in the Junior Squads and Mini Mets work on starts, turns and stroke development in the swimmers usual training sessions.
May 2023
Request
The Club Website http://www.tmbsc.co.uk is out of date in sections and needs a tidy up please.
Response
We started the process of updating our Club Website in April 2023. This is a large project as it has not been updated for some time due to lack of volunteers. Please bear with us whilst we are updating it. Members will be notified as soon as the website has been completely updated.
Request
Please can we have clarification of the process for reporting absences before team relays prior to events.
Response
Our Competition Secretary will remind swimmers and parents of the process for reporting absences before team relays prior to events.
Request
Could we have Squad WhatsApp Groups for parents to communicate between each other e.g. to organise car sharing, ask questions about galas etc.
Response
We are happy for parents to set up their own Squad WhatsApp Groups as we can see the benefits, but this is not something that the Club wishes to be directly involved in because of Privacy and Data Protection concerns and the fact it would be something we would then have to be involved in the management of.
Request
On the Notice Board outside the Club Office could we have a swimmer posted there each month from each squad? It would make the children proud and motivated.
Response
As a Committee we thought this was a great idea. We are going to introduce a Swimmer of the Month Award for each Squad across the club from the start of the 2023-2024 Season. The monthly winners will receive a small trophy for the month and have their photo taken and put on the club website and our Notice Board outside the club office.
