Our guest on Sunday 30th June’s show was Helen Henderson, who is the fundraising officer for Sedgefield Water polo Club. Helen was able to bring us up to date on the number of members of the club who are playing at national/international level, but this level of success comes at a price with the hire of training facilities currently at an all time high. Sponsorship plays an important part in the continued development and future success of the club, as does the recruitment of new members who will go on to play an important role in the future of the club at grass roots level as well as regional and national level.
Now there is a real need for the female members of the club to establish their own identity within the club and play at competition level in their own leagues, so now, more than ever, is the opportunity to get involved.
The club is recruiting now for young swimmers who want to be a part of this success story and have a passion for water sports. If your child can confidently swim 25m and you would like further information you can contact Helen on https://www.facebook.com/sedgefieldwpc. If you are a local business and would like to discuss the possibility of sponsorship options, you can also contact Helen on the club website.
