Dear Swim Parents After listening to feedback from a number of parents I thought it would be helpful to lay out what galas are on this side of Christmas and provide a little detail on which galas are suitable for which swimmers. I appreciate that there is sometimes an assumed level of knowledge about these things which for new swim parents is not going to be the case. In terms of some more background on galas for new parents and the mechanics of entering via Team Unify please refer to...

Hi All, I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be looking to bring the gala fees account up to date over the course of the next couple of days. This is the first time that we will collect gala fees via the new TeamUnify system - As a reminder, these will now be collected directly from the credit / debit card that parents register when they enter their swimmers into galas. Parents should receive an automatically generated email from the TeamUnify system to inform you of the...

NB: this will also appear in the Team App News while we run with both systems until mid-June Hi everyone As part of the Team Unify adoption we are changing how swimmers enter into galas. Currently this is a hugely time intensive and manual process that largely relies on the large time commitment and fantastic efforts of Gail Hogarth and Scott Creelie. Utilising Team Unify will put more responsibility onto parents to enter meets and pay for them upfront. A very brief summary is that you can sign your swimmer...

We are delighted to confirm that Portobello High School is open as of tonight, we do however still have some restrictions and to ensure fair pool time for all squads we have updated the training schedule. Please look at it and ensure that you are going to the right place at the right time, some of the times and venues are different to what they were before, we are sorry for inconvenience. The high school pool...

Please note this update has also been posted on Team App while we run with both systems as people adopt Team Unify. We've been informed the PHS pool is due to re-open on May 1st. However, this has just been via our local councillors who have been keeping themselves updated. We are still to hear officially from Edinburgh Leisure therefore we can't confirm exactly when all our swim/ WP sessions will restart (and what it means for the temporary sessions at Leith Victoria). Sorry we can't give more detail at...
