The committee apologies for the late confirmation due to the unavailability of Millfield in 2017 due to its extended shutdown. We have tried to avoid clashing with other events such as the Inter Regionals and National League Competition where possible but due to the restricted availability of pools this has not been as easy as we would hope.The date and venue for the 16 & Under boys and girls competition will be confirmed in the next couple of days as will a detailed order of play for all seven competitions.
