We’ve spent years talking about the Station Quarter. Today we got action with the Government giving the green light to the funding.
This is a success for everyone involved in the project. Improving our city is a team sport. Shared success.
This is brilliant news. City of Peterborough Swimming Club looks forward to working with @PeterboroughCC to bring this to life. Generational opportunity to invest in the City. Thanks to @andrewpakes_ for all his drive
Breaking News: Labour Government gives backing to new pool in Peterborough.
Great to see new Sports Quarter around ARU Peterborough named in today’s Spending Review.
Huge opportunity for the city. Now we need to get on and submit the business case.
Great to see @COPSSwimFast winning awards. Well deserved Ben.
Even more impressive given the council closed the Regional Pool with no Plan B in place.
We need the city to work together and get plans going for a new pool. We will all benefit.
Helping swimmers to reach their goals 🙌

@PoliticsPboro Please ask them how seriously they take the need for a new pool. @COPSSwimFast have been in good dialogue about a new 50M pool for the whole community and needs to be seen in action. Are they for real?
@pbhydro_users@TobyWoody@peterboroughtel@COPSSwimFast@COPSSwimFast had a very good discussion with the Council. They are very commited to a new pool and making it as attractive as possible to all users and potential events. The Lido is great but let’s not blur the 2 things. We need a new indoor (50m pool) ideally and ASAP
Practice does not make perfect.
Perfect practice does not make perfect.
"Perfect" in itself is a myth #coaches and chasing it will drive you and your athletes crazy.
What we are really aiming at is #coaching athletes to perform their skills and techniques reasonably well, at speed, under fatigue, when facing emotional pressure, in competition - when and where it matters.
Give my "Performance Practice" model a try - the systematic evolution of #skills from learning and practice to effective execution in competition situations.

Earlier this year we launched our #ValueOfSwimming report which found that swimming generates social value of £2.4billion a year 🏊
It's important that we continue to share this message, so join @MarkFosterSwim, @BeckAdlington and many more as we say #DontPutACapOnSwimming!
