Three members of the Bailey family took part in the great north swim on Sunday 24th June 2012.
Despite racing being cancelled on the Saturday due to extremely poor weather, Sunday allowed both Ellis and Phil to each successfully complete the half mile open water event. Joe competed in the full mile and although the field was reduced due to the appalling weather on the Saturday, Joe was placed 23rd in a field of over 2,000 in a time of 24:09.
Congratulations to both.
Newsflash
We need more licensed officials to run events and to complete behind the scenes roles. Why not start to train as an official? Its not as daunting as you think. Most of the training is done on pool side at a pace that suites you. Join a Judge 1 course to see what it is all about. Questions? Please ask Darren Hall or e-mail the club This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
If you are a parent of a CASC swimmer and have an hour or two to spare each week please contact a member of the committee either on poolside or via the 'contact us' link above as we are always looking for help from committed parents. Support is welcome both on poolside and behind the scenes with club administration / management functions.
