Photography at the Pool
Please remember that if you want to take photographs with a camcorder, still camera, mobile phone, or any other device you must enter details in the Photography Book. This applies to galas, open meets, Club Championships, and training sessions.
Use of the Club video camera in training sessions will also be recorded, as will the dates when the images are deleted. We have just bought an underwater video camera for use in training; sequences will be viewed by swimmers on a laptop in a viewing area behind the staff room.
