We will be running the Junior and Senior sessions on these dates, these will follow the same procedures we set up in October.
Unfortunately as Suffolk is classed as a Tier 2 area we are unable to welcome our over 18 players back.
I guess it is no surprise following the Prime Ministers announcement on Saturday that our water polo sessions on Friday’s are cancelled until further notice. Crown Pools will be closing as swimming pools are required to close under the current English rules.
The committee would thank to the players and parents for complying with our Covid procedures for the three sessions that we managed to get in before the half term break.
We will continue to monitor the updates from HMG, Swim England and the pool operators, I will let you know what happens next as soon as we do,
Meantime you and your families stay safe and well.
Dear parents and players,
We will have all seen the latest guidance issued by the government in response to Covid-19 to limit social interaction. Whilst Swim England are saying at the moment whilst schools are still open they see no reason for clubs to suspend club training session at this stage that left us in a difficult position as to what to do as a club.
The consensus of of the committee was that we should suspend all of our water polo training sessions effective from now.
In fact it was announced this morning that Ipswich Council are closing Crown Pools from today.
I will email out to all over the coming weeks when we decide it is sensible to resume.
We appreciate your patience at this time and mean time check out facebook page/website for updates.
Update from Swim England this evening “Having further reviewed the guidance, it is Swim England’s interpretation that club activity falls into the ‘public gathering’ category and therefore it is strongly advising clubs to consider cancelling or postponing activity – including events”
