Swimming in a different Pool!
28 Feb 2026
My friend, who I coached as a junior cricketer, has qualified for Ultimate Pool in the UK. I'm sponsoring him to cover fees and travel. When I gave him my details I put my company as the Ministry of Testing. I expect to see my name on the shirt but he has used the MoT logo. I think it looks good and gets the name to a new audience. I’ve asked if I can get one, so it may make an appearance at MoTaCon!
