Club Night Times |
Our home is the Des Renford Aquatic Centre (at Heffron Park) where we run Club races every Friday all year round, sign-on by 6.15pm. All are welcome to come along and have a trial swim.
Our aim is to encourage swimming and provide swimming opportunities for all levels of ability - whether competing at carnivals held by other clubs and associations or just to swim socially in a Club atmosphere.
The Committee has decided that we will not be going to Jamberoo this year. We based our decision on the fact that only a small number of people indicated they will be attending. We apologise to those who were looking forward to going to Jamberoo. A number of people have also said that they would not go to Jamberoo at that time of year due to the very large crowds. So we will consider a trip to Jamberoo sometime in 2012.
So instead of going to Jamberoo we will be holding the Christmas Party here in the Competition Pool on Friday 2nd December starting at 6:30 pm. We won’t be running the scheduled club events on this night instead the swimmers will be able to have a go on the pool inflatable. There will also be pizzas, drinks and lollies for all.
Registration
Everyone should have also received an e-mail containing their username and passwords to renew their membership for this season. If you haven't received these details please let us know at info@mbra.org.au.
We can also renew your membership in the clubroom on Friday nights before 6:30 pm. Bring either cash or cheque along we can renew your membership on the spot!

All swimmers sit together during the meet.
Cheer for team-mates when they're swimming
