Annual General Meeting

Big thanks to everyone who attended this year's AGM on Wednesday 28th June.

This was held as a face-to-face meeting at Guildford Spectrum and online via Microsoft Teams for those who were unable to attend in person.

Stuart Johnson was voted in as the new chairman and Simon White as the new treasurer. Both of them dive in our Monday evening term-time adult class.

The meeting thanked all the volunteers and supporters over the past year for giving up their time freely to help the club in its charitable objectives.

Special thanks were recorded to Carl 'Cooky' Cookson, the outgoing chairman, Stephen Oliver, the outgoing treasurer, and Maithili Guise Tucker, an outgoing trustee.

Winter club competition

Thanks to everyone who took part and supported our winter club competition fundraiser, the second internal meet we have been able to run in 2022.
There was a good turnout across four hours of pool time, with a total of 74 divers competing across eight events.
For many divers this was their first-ever competition. Divers and parents in the first couple of sessions were also treated to dive shows from some of our development and age group squad divers.

The detailed results and a selection of photos from the meet can be found here. Also check out the 'Write-ups' section.
