Scunthorpe Anchor Swimming Club committee would like to announce that as from January 2007 we have taken the decision to join forces with Cleethorpes and District Swimming club to compete at Counties, Districts, Nationals, Lincs Junior League and Speedo League competitions. For these competitions we will swim under the CASA Logo.
We have taken this decision to allow swimmers from both clubs the opportunity to compete against some of the larger clubs in the country.
The name of the new club will be Cleethorpes and Scunthorpe Aquatics therefore neither club is seen to be taking over the other, or losing its own identity. We know that this has happened with other Clubs in the past and it is not what either club committee would wish for. The design of the logo has taken into account the two clubs 'colours' and the jigsaw designs show the clubs coming together. Swimmers have been registered to swim with each club, CADS, Scunthorpe and CASA.
Dave Leeman Head Coach of Scunthorpe will also be sending over the swimmers he feels will benefit from extra training with Cleethorpes top squad. The swimmers from Scunthorpe who are accessing extra sessions with CADS must be attending all the sessions at Scunthorpe before they can attend any CADS sessions. It is important to realise that these sessions will be a top up to their training not an alternative.
Cleethorpes & Scunthorpe are both Swim 21 Accredited Clubs and an important part of Swim 21 is Partnerships - we hope the joint venture can only strengthen each club and offer their swimmers the opportunity to compete at the highest level possible.
