| Most of the people who make this club run so successfully are unpaid volunteers who give up a little of their spare time (or a lot in some cases!) to help, and without them the club would not exist. we are always looking for more parents of swimmers or good volunteers who would be able to continue to help the club grow and become even more successful. If you can spare as little or as much time as you like you would be be surprised how fulfilling it can be to be part of the Edmonton Phoenix Revolution. Just speak to any coach/teacher or committee member on poolside, email epsc@btinternet.com or ring 07948 120 185. Your club Needs YOU!! |
