Kingdom Masters Gala, Tralee April 5th

Posted on 27, March 2014

in Category Club News, Gala Diary

So you will have had plenty of time to let the body rejuvenate after the “exertion” in Limerick. The Tralee event is always a great day out. Sometimes the day runs into a very late night but don’t let that put you off – you can always sleep on the bus home! The gala offers a great range of Short Course events and with a 10 a.m. start you can still get a bit of a snooze. See http://www.kingdomswimmingclub.ie/MastersInformation.html for more information. Please send your entries to Paddy on  healy.ptk@gmail.com

But the chat up lines were good. Coach Dempsey also refused to stop [&hellip
