Hi All,
Entries for the City of Leeds Xmas Meet (17th, 18th & 19th December) are now open on the online entry system and will close on Monday 1st November. Please remember entries are not accepted until payment is completed.
Try and plan your events wisely so you are not repeating the same events 3 weeks later at the New Year Meet (unless you are using this as a backup should you miss your Yorkshire time at the Xmas Meet).
If you have already qualified for the Yorkshire's or NER's in an event, then we strongly advise focusing on achieving qualifying times in other events. You will get chance to swim your best events at the Yorkshire Championships in February.

Enter secondary events at the New Year meet. All swimmers should enter the 200m IM at either the Christmas or New Year meet. Try and plan so you have no more than 2 events per session unless you are swimming a 50 in which case 3 events per session maximum.
