Welcome to Wey Valley!

*COVID-19 UPDATE* - Wednesday 22nd September 2020

Further to the Government's latest advice (Tuesday 21st September) we can confirm that all sessions will carry on as normal, as swim training and lessons are not deemed indoor team sports. A full statement is available on the Swim England website.  

See changes below on protocols for entry to the pools.

We are now back in the pool at the Guildford Spectrum and Godalming Leisure Centre with a new term session structure from Sunday 6th Sept which makes best use of the available pool time. The first full weekend sessions were all completed including the first return for our teaching groups. Thank you to everyone for their efforts in making this happen and especially to the swimmers who were following all the new rules and enjoying pool time again.

We sent out survey links to members w/c 31st August to find out your preferences, so if you have completed this and haven't heard back, then your sessions will be as requested. If you have not responded then you will need to get in touch as we are using these responses to populate our sessions and registers. The most up to date list is below.

NB. JS/SS, Wednesday 1830-2000 at Godalming will be on alternate weeks, i.e. 9th, 23rd Sept.

*Masters Saturday 0700-0800, Godalming - Start date TBC 

Guildford Spectrum

The Spectrum entry procedure has changed for evening sessions where swimmers should now use the main entrance. (For the Sunday teaching sessions, whilst in daylight hours, will still be using the rear fire door entrance for now.)

Inside the Spectrum face masks are now requested to be worn by all swimmers and spectators in all areas excep poolside.  This includes swimmers under the age of 11. Usual exemptions apply, but please let the club know if this covers any members. Hand sanitiser is available on entry and should be used by anyone coming in the front entrance.

Parents are allowed to view from the viewing gallery, although the cafe and balcony next to the Leisure pool are off limits. Changing rooms, lockers or showers are not to be used by swimmers and Parents should meet their swimmers outside the pool as usual.

Please read the latest Risk Assessment covering use of the main entrance (again just Evening sessions for now), which can be found here:  WVSC Covid 19 RA Spectrum main entrance v2.docx

The Godalming LC instruction video can be viewed here https://youtu.be/5_XK4JLRFFY.

For reference the latest updated Risk Assessment (version 2) can also be found HERE.

PLEASE NOTE THAT ON EXIT FROM GODALMING POOL, SWIMMERS WILL NOW BE DIRECTED LEFT TO THE REAR CAR PARK WHICH IS WELL LIT AND WORKED WELL THIS WEEKEND. This will avoid confusion of which side the swimmers will emerge, but please can we ask all parents meet them at the gated exit and not to wait in cars. This will avoid unsupervised swimmers wandering across the car park.
