Many thanks to those who attended last night's meetings, and for the positive feedback which confirms that events of this nature are a valued form of communication within the Club. Richard Blackshaw talked about the outstanding results that Stockport Metro has achieved this season, from the Mini Meet Series, to the Cheshire Counties, Speedo League, the Regional Championships, and the Scottish Nationals. It's a record year for National qualification and International representation, with a bumper crop of swimmers going to the World and European Championships, European Juniors, European Disability, English Schools, World School Games and the Tri Nations. Richard also underlined the vital role that the Committee and volunteer community play at Stockport Metro, and the need to recruit more parental assistance with the running of the club in order to ensure that the coaching staff are free to focus on what they do best: enabling the swimmers the achieve their full potential and the Club to maintain its unrivalled position at the forefront of British swimming. A huge amount goes on behind the scenes with financial managment, SM meet management, external meet entries, accommodation, transport, welfare, awards, social events, the swimshop, the website, fundraising and publicity. Please think about how you could help the club, either on the Committee or in one of a myriad of other roles, and contact any of the committee members for more information. |
