Hope you have had a good week – for us behind the scenes the week cannot end on a better note – we have finally received our Authority to Resume Activities and classified still as a Low Risk Sport – the strict protocols and precautionary measures that we have had in place since September remain in place and going forward, will be even more closely monitored – we ask that when we get going for our first event you all please remember to follow the guidelines and instructions in place – So – as before, approval for events has to be made on an event by event basis and within 14 days prior to the proposed event date. We have made applications to hold events at Mount Pleasant Pool on –
14th March – HAVE BEEN ADVISED THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE – therefore – 1st event will probably be on 21st.
21st March 28thMarch 4th April – NO EVENT – EASTER WEEKEND 11th April 18TH April – NO EVENT – INDEPENDENCE PUBLIC HOLIDAY 25th April ** Depending on water temperature we may try and fit another event in May The race day programmes are being finalised and we will advise as soon as possible what distances will be on offer – please diarise these dates in the meantime !! Our season would normally have ended at the end of March but we will extend through into April to make up for lost time and events that had to be cancelled in January and February. As you already know, the Bonaqua Africa Triathlon Cup and National Champs have already been rescheduled to 25th September. The End of season Prize Giving date will also be confirmed. Final preparations at Mount Pleasant are being carried out this weekend and the pool should be ready to use in the next couple of days – City of Harare have also advised they have been given the green light to re-open so as soon as the water treatment processes are completed SWIMMING TRAINING CAN RESUME !! Dig your Membership cards out and remember to sign in with Sanda, do your temperature checks, sanitise etc. In the meantime, please keep checking your email and our website and social media for any other updates – ONLINE ENTRIES for our events will be uploaded as soon as the formats are finalised so until 21st March – keep safe and we look forward to seeing you all again 🙂
