Week 1 03/09/2023
Bonjour, ciao, hola, guten Tag and hello!
Welcome back to Barts and the London, the 2023/24 season awaits you. It’s been a long summer apart, and I hope you’ve all been up to no good.
This first update contains a bunch of important info so be sure to give it a read!
As we trickled back into London last week, Lumpfish, SGP and I trialled some intense preseason sessions while awaiting the return of the captains.
Fear not! They are back and better than ever this week and will be sure to put you through your paces. Make sure to buy your limited edition black swim hats so that we all look stylish and put together, message Eddie for more details!
Preseason training times are as below and on this lovely Facebook link!

Looking forward to seeing lots of you there, and we will definitely be making some pub and brunch trips afterwards so everyone can catch up!
This Wednesday we will be trialling our new social secs Dirty Chub and Tadpole Brandon as we Return to Tables, which will be in the Griff Inn (it’s still in the old BLSA building despite our many goodbyes). Be sure to go to the men’s and women’s socials beforehand! Otherwise meet us there at 19.00 for a 19.30 start, you know the drill!
In terms of future water polo training, we have some exciting news! We are now a Focus Team! In other words, S+C is coming back, along with a discount to QMotion and extra funding for the club! We will let you know more details about this in the next couple of weeks!
We are returning to Poplar on 25th September for the training times below:
Mondays 20.00-21.30
Thursdays 20.30-22.00
Land training will be in the BLSA room on Wednesdays at 14.00-15.30!
Finally, on Saturday our committee will be bonding over bottomless brunch. Ignore the awful chat on telegram and join us at Club de Fromage later!
Watery, wet love,
Miracle-Flo xoxo
