Please can we request that all clothing and footwear is put into a locker at Hebburn (£1 returnable) and not left in cubicles, as other users need to access these facilities, or on the floor as staff need to be able to swill the area.
Thank you in advance of your cooperation.

We have been asked by staff at Hebburn Central to remind all parents that outdoor footwear must be removed or shoe covers worn in changing areas and on the poolside.
This is a matter of hygiene for all users of the facility and we ask our club parents, swimmers and members to please comply with this aspect of the Pool Safety Code.
Thank you in advance of your co-operation.

Following the Tynemouth Spring Gala please can we remind all swimmers and parents of the kit required when attending a gala - click on more for details. Please note that it is very important that swimmers have a pair of poolside shoes or flips flops to wear between events and that their name or Squad Number is on every piece of kit as it so easily gets misplaced/mixed-up when in such close quarters on poolside.

Please can we remind all parents that you are required to arrive at each training venue prior to the session finish time in order to collect your child.
If you are unable to do this then you must arrange for another adult to wait with your child or to collect them on your behalf.
