Avanti Excel Full Foot Fins
The Avanti Excel Full Foot Fins are fairly good fins and are good value for money. Many people in the club have used and still use these fins, so if you are thinking about getting a pair I recommend these.

Training Sessions: Attendance & Kit
I don't want to moan, but I have been asked to post the following: Please ensure that you are not late to training sessions, we meet outside the pool in the car park and start picking teams at quater to the hour. (Session times can be found in the calendar.)
Also if you use club kit, it would be really appericiated if you could return it to the kit box as neatly as possible. If you use some of the new blue fins please put the foot shapers back in when you put them away.
