The Region has now conducted its review of the Future Champions Meet.
In light of the Government decision to delay the relaxation of social distancing measures to 19th July, the decision has been taken to move the meet by one week to 24th/25th July. The venue will remain Basildon Sporting Village. We are most grateful for the support of Everyone Active and Swim England Essex in assisting in making these revised arrangements so quickly.
In view of the change of date, the closing date for entries to the event has been extended to midday on Friday 9th July.
Entries will soon open, via an online system which will be published on the Swim England East Region website shortly. Entries will be by individuals and/or their parents/carers, rather than by a club official.
Much work has gone in to rearranging this event and the Region is entirely committed to it taking place. Given the recent instability presented by COVID-19, particularly the Delta variant, it is somewhat superfluous to state that the Region, its clubs and parents/carers all have a role in managing swimmer expectations, as any further delay could lead to a more protracted delay to the staging of this meet.
We dearly hope, however, to welcome you all to the meet at Basildon in July.
