This years Spring Open will take place 23rd & 24th May 2020 at Central Baths, Wolverhampton.

Details and entries to follow shortly!

IMPORTANT: Could all team managers please check that there are no errors in your swimmers entries. Any error on our part will be rectified.

Live Results
Results will be available live on the day via the following link. Top boy/girl/club points will only be updated at the end of the weekend.

Programmes
The meet programme, as for all our open meets, is in the form of a free download. Please download this onto your phone or tablet and bring it along with you, as there will be no programmes available on the day. Think about the environment and only print if needed.

Allocated Seating
We will accept as many entries as we possibly can so that means that in order to fit everyone into Central Baths we have pre-allocated seating for all swimmers. The seating plan is in the programme and we will have a link available soon.
Spectators will be allowed in on a first come first served basis and we cannot guarantee that we will have room for all spectators but we will do our best. Please think carefully as to how many need to attend to watch.

Withdrawals
So that the gala runs with as few empty lanes as possible would you please let us know if you have any withdrawals. You can email us on openmeet@northgateswimming.co.uk

Poolside Passes
All coaches and team managers must have a poolside pass that has been purchased in advance. The pass not only gives you access to poolside, start sheets, etc. but all pass wearers are invited to join us upstairs for lunch on both days.

Session Timings
Morning sessions on both days will begin with a warm-up at 8:30am – racing to start at 9:30pm.  Afternoon warm-ups will start no earlier than 1:15pm.

Officials Briefings
Briefings will take place upstairs in the officials room at 8:45am and 1:30pm each day.

If you are available to help out at the gala we would be pleased to hear from you. We need officials and gala crew to help out, and in return we offer free admission, a polo shirt, drinks bottle, breakfast and lunch and refreshments throughout the Day. Due to restrictions on glass at Central Baths we will be offering a voucher to anyone that helps us out to buy a gift of your choice. We will also be offering mentoring of officials subject to sufficient numbers of officials being available. 

Thanks in advance.

We look forward to seeing you all soon.
