On Friday 26th September 2024, Swimmers, Coaches and Parents of Loftus Dolphins ASC gathered at Loftus Leisure Centre to pay a loving tribute to Para Swimmer and Club Member, Joe Field, who passed away in April 2024.
A new Timing Clock was unveiled by Joe's family, as a lasting Tribute to Joe and his unwavering dedication to the sport of Swimming, despite his many Health issues. After the Clock was switched on, the Club Swimmers swam a length of Joe's favourite Stroke, Breaststroke, led by his former Team Mates Emily B, Esme B, Harry F, Coby T and Owen H. Joe was a wonderful young man, and his presence will be missed by all at Loftus Dolphins ASC.
After the event, we received a lovely message from Joe's family:
"Hi Barbara.
