UPDATED SATURDAY 2ND OCTOBER 2021 SOME SPECTATORS ALLOWED AT LEEDS

Entries have now closed for the Winter Competitions. These are scheduled to take place at the John Charles Centre for Sport, Leeds on 9th/10th October (Upper Age Groups) and Ponds Forge International Sports Centre, Sheffield on 23rd/24th October (Lower Age Groups)

All entries have been accepted. The Level of entry for the Leeds event is very high and in order to remain within the capacity set for the John Charles Centre for Sport, at the time entries closed, we could not have Spectators at this event.

Late Friday afternoon, 1st October 2021, we were advised that Leeds City Council had agreed to increase the capacity of the John Charles Centre for Sport, for our event.  As a result of this we are now able to allow a limited number of spectators at the event. Purchase of tickets will be via an online system with tickets being sold on a first come/first served basis until the capacity is reached. We will not be selling tickets at the venue.

Tickets are priced at £10 per day, which entitles one person to spectate at the event. Applicants will only be able to purchase one ticket for each day.

Where a swimmer is only competing in one session ticket may be shared so that one person can attend for the other session.
There will be no concessions except one child under 5 will be admitted when accompanying a ticket holder..

The ticket purchase system is here:-https://www.swimmingresults.org/events/yorkswinter21/ Tickets will be available from 9am on Monday 4th October 2021

We will revert to the normal Spectator entry system for the meet at Sheffield. Payment will be taken at the door. We do not anticipate any capacity problems at this particular meet.

We welcome offers of help from technical officials at all our events. If you are able to assist us for any of the sessions please contact our Officials Coordinator, email address officialscoordinator@yorkshireswimming.org

Stay Safe
