The George Wheaton BBB heats

BBB is short for Breaststroke, Backstroke and Butterfly. It’s a unique event in which competitors race each other with different “B” strokes in the same race on handicap. So a swimmer in one lane may swim Butterfly, another Breaststroke and a third Backstroke!

To enter the BBB you just need to nominate your stroke using TeamApp. We ask that all swimmers complete their stroke nomination before Friday COB so that the heats can be set up properly.

All going well we hope to have members of the Wheaton family join us on pool deck at the final to present the winner with the trophy.

Check out the George Wheaton BBB page on our website to learn about the story behind this race.

Ladies Social Night

Our first social event for the season is coming up fast. The Ladies social night out is being held on 9 November at the R&B Grillhouse on Victoria Road Drummoyne starting at 7pm. The R&B Grillhouse is a major sponsor and this event is a great way to show our support and gratitude.

Please let us know if you are planning to attend using TeamApp Event so we can make a booking.

The men’s night out will follow a couple of weeks later on 23 November.
