Another summer over 🙁 and consequently, training in the lanes of Denmead is coming to an end 😥. Winter training commences on Monday 11th September.
With his usual efficiency, Gary our head coach has compiled a new winter training schedule well in advance so that you can all peruse to see what goodies lie in store for you over the coming months. Follow the link Winter Training 2023 for details. please note that not all training sessions start at Waterlooville swimming pool this year.
Please follow the following link to see latest results and all 5 races of this season.
Paul attended the SCCL AGM this week in preparation for the new season.
This means that some dates have been released for the six scheduled races.
Please put them in your calendar and don’t double book, we have a championship to defend !
Unfortunately, one (Lord Wandsworth) already clashes with the Portsmouth Coastal Marathon.
The current provisional list of races are as follows:
Let’s do it again this season!

The lovely Dawn has put together the latest summer newsletter for your reading pleasure. Thank you to all of those of you that have contributed. It really does help Dawn when she is putting together, some great reads there too.
Please see photographs courtesy of Peter Maisey.
It has been noticed that the chatter whilst the coaches are trying to explain the sessions has started to creep back in. We are having fairly large numbers at training on a Monday & Wednesday and whilst you may think you know the session there are a lot of people that don’t. Please respect the coaches and leave your catch up until the session starts if you wish.
It has been a few years now since we have had a good old club photo and things have changed quite a bit since the last one. We will arrange this on a club night and encourage everyone to come in the Striders vests (or maybe just red if you don’t have one). I will give advanced warning on what date this will be and hopefully do it on a sunny day!

Congratulations to the six Striders who ran the London Marathon last weekend – superb results all round!

For those that may not have heard, I am very pleased to announce that Denmead Striders are officially SCCL champions for the 2022-23 season!
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank every one of you that ran, volunteered or supported the team throughout the winter months to make this possible, you are all awesome!
Well done everyone, you should all be very proud.
For a small club we pack a pretty big punch!
Paul
