What a great night!

Thanks to all the parents who brought their swimmers out tonight, lucky for us the weather was perfect.

Thanks to all those new parents who put their hands up tonight to get involved. And to all the supporters who cheered the swimmers on.

Loving the new faces, and missing some of our regular ones. Have a great weekend everyone.

Good weather for Ducks.... and swimming! At this point swimming will go ahead. The only time its cancelled is if there is thunder.

Check out the page tomorrow afternoon and if there are any concerns or updates, we will let you know. Otherwise, its racing as usual.

Don't forget to nominate!

Where did the warmer weather go?

Thanks to the swimmers who showed up tonight! Was great to see our new faces returning!

For those who were disco dancing, we hope to see you all next week.

New to Railways, or just need a refresher?
Our Race Night Guide is here! It walks you through how club night runs, from arrival to the final whistle. Here are the main points:

- Arrive by 6pm. Free swim runs until around 6:20pm.
- Nominate on the Swim Central app by 6pm. Once racing starts, no races can be added.
- Listen for your race. Swimmers come to marshalling at the orange cones when called. If you’re not there, you’ll miss your race. Tip: when the seniors step up to the blocks, the next stroke is being marshalled.
- Quiet in marshalling so swimmers can hear the starter.
- Whistle, “take your marks”, beep, GO!
- Stay in the water until everyone finishes, then exit at the side of the pool on the whistle.
- No swimming in lightning. Check this page for storm updates before you head out.
- BBQ every night (cash and card), and it supports the club!

Leaving early or feeling unwell? Just let the marshaller know.

Our nights run on volunteers, and timekeeping is as easy as a charged phone and a finger for START and STOP. We’ll show you how!

Questions? Grab any committee member on the night or send us a message. See you Friday night!

A huge thank you to everyone who came down for our first Railways Swim Club night! It was fantastic to see so many new faces on pool deck, and just as great to welcome back so many of our returning swimmers.

We hope you all had a great first night. Well done to every swimmer who hit the water, whether it was your first race with us or your hundredth!

Thank you to our volunteers who cooked the BBQ, dished out the food and timekept- your support is greatly appreciated.

We can’t wait to see you all back next Friday night. All aboard!

While you are nominating the kids for their races, also put your name down to Timekeep. It allows the night to be more organised, gets it underway quicker and helps everyone out. If you can't nominate on the app, then comment below.

Many hands make light work, and the more organised we are, the better our night goes :-) Thank you in advance!
