A magnificent performance from our club swimmers in the County Championships this year!
With a team of 13 swimmers, they competed in 48 events between them, resulting in 25 Final places. Of these, 13 were converted into medals with gold medals for Lewis on 200M Backstroke & Millie S (50M Breaststroke), Silvers went to Lexi (3), Millie S & Macy (2) with bronze medals for Lexi (2) & Lewis (3). In addition, 11 new club records were set. The gala was held over 2 weekends at the 50M Sunderland pool. In the week before the second phase of the competition there was a Chlorine leak at Loftus Leisure Centre, resulting in the pool being closed for 8 days. This makes the performances of the swimmers even more remarkable when their training had been interrupted but it just seemed to spur the youngsters on the achieve their goals despite the setback.
Well Done everyone concerned!
