THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR POSITIVE FEEDBACK ……

Posted by with No Comments

The Management Team, coaches and teachers would like to thank you all for your positive feedback from the beginning of lockdown through our current Phase 1, see below:

“Hope you are both safe and well during these extraordinary times. I’ve just seen Guildford City’s return to training pre and post pool sets on Twitter and felt compelled to write to say a big thank you.”

“I (and everyone I have spoken to) have been so incredibly impressed by all you as a club have done to help the wider swimming community during lockdown. Your generosity and community spirit in sharing your extensive experience and expertise has been amazing. The daily land training sets for example is greatly appreciated. I have swimmers from a number of small clubs in the school I teach and having made them aware of what Guildford City were doing, they have all followed your daily training and it has helped immeasurably in keeping them active and positive – ultimately it has kept them in the sport, and looking forward to getting back in the pool.

But it wasn’t just the daily training that has been so impressive, it is everything you have done to help swimmers (and parents) through this difficult time. The interviews with the club captains as a further example were enlightening and Charlie’s story in particular was so helpful for the older swimmers who may be struggling with similar issues when they return to the pool.

So thank you for all that you have done.”

“All the best to you and all the swimmers as you return to the pool. You certainly return knowing you have done all you possibly could to help the swimming community through this tough time.

Kindest regards”

“Please can I say a HUGE thank you and well done to the entire GCSC team for how the whole COVID period and return to swimming has been managed.  I cannot imagine how complex the last few months have been and the constant uncertainty of how, when and if we could get back to swimming.”

Thank you for the clear communication, providing excellent weekly training guidance, positive positioning of the situation and in general demonstrating the values of the club and leading from the front.”

“We are all delighted to be back training and feel well informed and safe in the environment you have created. “

“Once again please pass on our thanks to the entire team.”
