How does Thame Swimathon Work?
We are looking for teams of up to 6 swimmers. Each team is given a lane of the pool and will swim for 55 minutes. Only one team member swims at a time.
Available slots: 2 slots at 1 pm and 5 slots at 2 pm are available for teams of up to 6.
Which teams will attend: 5 teams from Thame Swimming Club, 5 from Barley Hill School and 3 from John Hampden School will attend and they have already started fundraising on https://www.givey.com/thamerotaryclubtrustfund
On average each swimmer does about 10-20 lengths during the 55 minutes, but there is no need for each team member to swim the same number of lengths.
Every team member gets sponsorship for the TEAM either by total number of lengths swum which can be up to 100 lengths or sponsorship can be a lump sum for taking part.
The event was sponsored by Lucy Electric, Aston Hearing and Thame Leisure Centre (Better).
