Galas.

 

Dove Valley is a competitive club and because of this you can expect that at some time during your membership you will be asked to take part in a gala.

 

The club competes within the A.S.A. Midland district. This covers a large number of counties throughout the midlands and includes:

 

  • Bedfordshire

  • Cambridgeshire

  • Derbyshire

  • Leicestershire

  • Lincolnshire

  • Norfolk

  • Northamptonshire

  • Nottinghamshire

  • Oxon

  • Shropshire

  • Staffordshire

  • Suffolk

  • Warwickshire

  • Worcestershire

 

This may sound like a huge area but many of the galas that the club competes in, take place within a 35 mile radius of Uttoxeter.

 

The club participates in various leagues which include:

  • The Junior League - Division 2 (age groups 9 - 12 years)

  • The Speedo League - Division 3 (100m swims for 11 years - open age groups)

  • The Staffordshire County League (age groups 9 years - open)

  • The Four Towns (Dove Valley, Ashbourne, Buxton & Leek for 9 years to open age groups)

In addition, throughout the season, the club competes in a variety of invitation trophy galas.

 

There are also opportunities for stronger swimmers to test their skills in open meet swims available throughout the United Kingdom. These are organised by individual members of the coaching team on behalf of those swimmers who wish to compete outside the club environment.
