Dear players and Parents,
Our Spring term is coming to a close our last sessions before the Easter break are
Tuesday 24th March at Deben Pool, Woodbridge
Friday 27th of March at Crown Pools, Ipswich.
Summer Term Arrangements
Two weeks ago Deben Pool informed us that Deben Pool would be closing from April until mid July for reroofing and Solar Panel installation. We have managed to secure 1 hour 15 mins at Crown Pools Ipswich on Tuesday evenings from 8:15pm until 9:30pm.
Friday sessions are unchanged .
We decided to utilise this slot to support both our under 16 and Over 16 player groups by using two lanes for Over 16s swim training and the remainder of the pool for Under 16S water polo training for the first 45 minutes and then over 16s get the whole pool for the last 30 mins
So our summer term programme will start on Tuesday 14th April and runs until Tuesday 14th Jul 2026 but there will be no water polo sessions on 26th May and 29th May – May half term
Tuesdays @ Crown Pools, Ipswich – (subject to contract)
8:15 pm until 9pm – under 16 Juniors Water Polo Training – 6 lanes
8:15pm until 9pm – over 16 Juniors and Adult swim training – 2 lanes
9pm until 9:30pm – over 16 Juniors and Adult Water Polo – Whole Pool
Fridays @ Crown Pools, Ipswich (no change)
8pm-8:15pm – Intermediate training – whole pool
8:45pm until 9:30pm – Junior Training – whole pool
We are aware that for the younger players on Tuesday this is a later time, could you let Linda and I know if you do not wish to attend the session at Crown Pools.
Also if any of the under 16s who just train on Fridays would be interested in joining the Tues sessions (there would be increase in monthly subscriptions) let us know.
Over 16s and Adult Sessions throughout Summer Break
We are hopeful that once the work at Deben completes to secure our 8pm-9pm slot back at Deben on Tuesdays and run this session through the summer. We have requested the slot from Deben so will email out details when confirmed.
Junior Sessions in September
We will be requesting our normal slots back at Deben for the Autumn term and it is our intention to return to Deben Pool on Tuesday evenings. I do not expect that will be confirmed until the work has been completed.
Many thanks
