"It's not very good at all, it's quite sad really."

Almost 2,000 swimming pools in England could close by 2030 without urgent government action, a Swim England report has suggested.

This Quote is so real when watching training in swimming, seeing the older or faster ones push others and motivate them to get better.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

The best player on a team should also be the hardest worker on the team. If you are the best player on your team, you have great influence as a leader. If you work hard and put the team first, your teammates will follow you!

Big congrats to Frederica, one of our fab swim mums, who completed a 5k swim for charity last week - great going for someone who couldn't swim in Sept 2018!
Frederica says a big thank you to @Jobbins23 for the private coaching @BadmintonSchool & to Tracey H for the moral support

Very mush the same thought here and our we going to miss out on a massive gap in talent due the long wait to get back in to the water! Hope we are back in soon!

Enjoying the swimming this morning, but brings home what we've been missing and the impact it has on all swimmers that can't train or race

[Josh Jobbins @Jobbins23]

Yes it is cold and might not be the best weather but do get outside for a walk or even a jog or ride! It is one of the highlights of my day and I am now always on google maps thinking up new routes or finding new places get and enjoy where you live :)

Pools remain shut but we’re still working hard out of the pool to improve our fitness with on-line sessions for our new club groups up to 4x a week – great to see ever bigger participation showing typical @bristolpenguins determination to better ourselves despite circumstances!

Every morning when you wake up you get to choose your attitude for the day. Are you going to passionately chase your dreams and live life to the fullest today, or are you going to choose to be negative and lazy instead?
