Please see below the meet information on the abovementioned Masters meet. This master meet provides the first racing opportunity in the Irish swimming calendar of 2022 & is a perfect opportunity to prepare for the proposed Irish Masters (in March) & Ulster Masters (May).
Well what can we say? What a great day we had at our inaugural Sliabh Beagh Swim Festival at Lough Major on Saturday. We were so delighted to host this event and get swimmers back competing after a very long break. It wasn’t our usual style, a new kind of experience for us as a Club and for many of the swimmers but we think it’s fair to say the event was a massive success.

Our swimmers have been on dry land for many weeks at this stage and have missed many training sessions, early morning rises and many competitions at all levels. We’ve sadly also missed our team competitions; the PTL galas and Aquasprints, so swimming news is thin on the ground.
As you may be aware, Swim Ireland published a ‘Return to Water’ roadmap last week (available online). We are currently taking advice and guidance from our Governing Body, Swim Ireland and from the management of Coral Leisure.
Due to restrictions and regulations that will be enforced; training for all our squads will continue to be suspended. At this present time, we are unsure when it will be possible for us to return to full training.
We will update you on the phases of the road map or any updates as they happen. But in the meantime, we ask all our members to adhere to the guidelines on social distancing.
Stay Active and Stay Safe.
