Big congratulations to CoPA synchro girls Jorja, Isabel, Olivia and Rhea who today passed their grades at the first North West synchronised swimming figure grade day of the year.
Well done girls!
A squad of between six and ten synchronised swimmers will be selected for additional training. Swimmers must already be attending all current club sessions, have a good work ethic, be self-motivated, be prepared to take on extra individual training and be full of enthusiasm! Current attendance, attitude, results during 2017 and performance in the North West trials will contribute towards selection.
If selected there will be an additional monthly fee of approximately £15 to cover pool hire.
If you are interested and would like to be considered please see Fiona.
All swimmers should have received a sheet with 2018 fees. Please can these be paid as soon as possible so that swimmers can be registered for 2018. Swimmers not registered are not insured for training and will not be able to take grades or enter competitions.
Water Polo players please see the event page for details of the forthcoming NW U14 championships.
Congratulations go to Rhea Howard who was awarded CoPA synchronised ‘Swimmer of the Year’ at the recent CoPA Christmas display event. Rhea’s dedication and hard work has paid off this year with her qualifying to swim solo at every competitive event she has entered, winning a number of medals and ultimately being selected for the GB Synchronised Swimming Squad.
Congratulations to Billy Bamber who scooped the first annual CoPA ‘Swimmer of the Year’ award in Water Polo discipline at the recent CoPA Christmas display event. Billy’s hard work, full attendance and ‘team player’ attitude make this award thoroughly deserved. Well done Billy!
