Great start to Counties 2020

We had a cracking start to Counties with Ben Newell claiming a silver in the Senior 1500m Freestyle and Maddie Pike landing a podium place with bronze in the Junior girls 1500m Freestyle.

The younger relay teams also had great swims and gained great experience racing against teams with older swimmers in them.

Fantastic swimming all round - good luck next week in the 800s and more relays.

Counties 2020 Success Continues

We had more success at Counties this weekend with both Maddie Pike and Ben Newell claiming silver in the 800m Freestyle in the Senior Boys and Junior Girls races.

The girls relay teams also had great swims and, just like the boys last week, gained great experience racing against teams with older swimmers in them.

Good luck to everyone swimming in the main weekends

Fantastic swimming from everyone - and we're very proud of our 9th place overall from a Club with the 3rd fewest swimmers.

Looking forward to the Long Course season now and building towards Regionals.
