REGISTRATIONS PAST DUE, IF NOT REGISTERED, GET REGISTERED, NO PAY, NO PLAY RULE IS IN FORCE CLICK  HERE OR GO TO Forms/SL2 Appl Membership ............................................................................. State Aquatic Centre: LATEST NEWS Over the past few months we (Jon Harmer & Peter Bayne) have been representing Water Polo at weekly User Group forums along with representatives from Swimming and Diving. The forums have been looking at all aspects of what is required/needed by the three sports to run International/National and Local competitions from pool deck dimensions to office space from water depth to timing details. The forums have just about completed their specifications and these will go to the builder for final drawings and costing's. On Friday the 16th there is a formal launch on site where the turning of soil and the start of construction are likely to take place. The process is running about 6 weeks late so the new facility will probably not be completed until mid/late 2010. At this stage there has been no announcement as to the manner in which the centre will be managed so we are unable to advise clubs on how you will be able to utilise the new facility - as soon as a decision has been made we will advise clubs. Regards Jon Harmer & Peter Bayn .............................................................................
