  • 2020 Edinburgh International Swim Meet Welcome – East District
    2020 EDINBURGH INTERNATIONAL SWIM MEET WELCOME – EAST DISTRICT On behalf of the East District management team, I welcome everyone to the Royal Commonwealth Pool for the 2020 Edinburgh International Swim Meet. The East District extends a warm welcome to the many returning swimmers, coaches and officials and also to all those attending this year’s event for the very first time. “Come on in! You’ll have had your tea?” is the perennial tease put about - jocularly - by Scotland’s larger city with reference to Edinburgh hospitality. However, in truth Edinburgh is and historically always has been a very outward- looking city, receptive and welcoming to people, culture and influences from far and wide, from European influences during the Scottish Enlightenment and before, to genuinely becoming a “worldwide city” (and indeed World Heritage City) today. We are proud that this is a truly International Meet with overseas athletes from Denmark, France, Belgium, Ireland, Faroe Islands and Spain all planning to visit and support from the very best of youth and elite swimming from across the home nations. Unfortunately a number of our international visitors have been unable to travel from their home nations due to their Government’s restrictions – we hope to see them in Edinburgh next year. We look forward to packed and exciting finals sessions each evening when our younger age group swimmers can rub shoulders with elite swimmers from around the world and take inspiration from them. I have no doubt there will be many highlights and new memories made for elite swimmers and age-group swimmers alike.
