EVENT PRACTICE SESSIONS

Do you have an event coming up and you’re not sure what to expect? Or perhaps you want to put all that training to the test and see if you can get yourself a new personal best.

Thanks to the NOWCA system, your safety wristband doubles up as a timing chip which our venues can use to run mini-events! There are 2-3 events each session, each one having a mass start where everyone sets off at the same time and then taps out at the end to generate a personal time.

You can choose to enter all the events or pick just one. As well as swimming distances such as a 400m and 750m swim event, there may also be a swim-run on offer.

Check out ACTiO to see which mini events your local venue has coming up and get yourself ready for Event season!

Not only is the venue outstanding at the Royal Docks the feeling of inclusion by all the staff is a huge factor in my own personal enjoyment of outdoor swimming. The fun aspect is also a big factor in why I continue to return not to mention the feeling of being safe in the water.- Nick Stagg - London
Love Open Water at Royal Docks.... a place i find calm amongst all the chaos. Lovely clean water within the historic docks. Urban swimming at it's best. All the staff are wonderful. So friendly, knowledgeable and encouraging. Keeping us safe in ALL weathers.- Karan Nightingale - London
