NAC - mornings

notlongleft

Does anyone here use the NAC first thing in the mornings. WOuld be looking at going at 6am and just wondering what the set up is like, I assume there is clubs there but how many lanes are for public? Thanks

Varies from morning to morning, but always at lease 3 lanes present for public. Slow/Medium and Fast

booking the early morning swims is getting to be a pain. They fill up immediately.

Don't get me started. Seems to be random as to how many slots they allocate in a session. E.G today at 6am, 12 spots available in 3 lanes for members and a swimming club had 18 people in 3 lanes and the leisnter team had another 24 or so people in 4 lanes so around 50 people in the pool, yet on Saturday evening only 12 people allowed to use 10 lanes in a 50m pool.
I've mailed them twice asking for an explanation and radio silence. To make matters worse for the hour session you can only get about 50-55mins in.
Very frustrating

For sure. Only being able to book 3 days in advance is ridiculous. You can't get a routine going.

was in for the 7.30 session this morning. four people there, had a lane to ourselves. but at least 15 on the sign-in sheet. So people are just booking sessions and not turning up. There has to be a better way of doing it.

That drives me mad.
I was there at 6am today, around 12 people in 5 lanes, 5 other lanes empty but not available for our use, High Performance don't use them until 7:30am. Very frustrating
