Competitions
Throughout the year there are various competitions that we encourage our PADS swimmers to enter.
Competitions can vary in length depending on the type of competition.
If they involve figures & routines they can last all day so it is important to prepare and make sure you have everything you need.
Please make sure you bring some warm clothing for in between figures or routines as well as high energy foods and plenty of non-fizzy drinks.
