To help promote the introduction of our new welfare initiatives and to raise some funds for the Club we wholeheartedly encourage all players and coaches (under 16s with parental consent) to participate in this invigorating experience and reap the amazing benefits of cold water immersion.

Date and location : Sunday 6th of April 2025, Loch Insh.

Details: Meet at Loch Insh Water Sports at 3pm for a 3.15pm start. With the aim of a maximum 10 minute immersion.
Bring something warm to wrap up in afterwards.

The dip will be overseen by Glen Tonkin who has recently been appointed as one of our welfare officers.
Glen has participated in cold water immersion for the past 6 years on average 3 times a week.

“I set a challenge to do 150 cold dips in one year. It was part of a goal setting exercise in ‘Focus’ one of the 5 key elements for a balanced life (the others being Fitness, Finance, Fun and Family). The idea is to benchmark where you are in each area, identify where the gaps are and set goals to improve your scores. In my mind if I could face the challenge of the cold, the rest of the day would become easier. Things were less stressful and I knew that if I put my mind to it, I could achieve anything as I pushed myself out of my comfort zone. The benefits to me have been massive, not only for my wellness but it has also spilled out to everything I do and who that affects…”

Come along and join us at Loch Insh on Sunday the 6th of April, feel the rush and boost your wellbeing while supporting a fantastic cause.
