Our 13 year old boys dominated the 50 backstroke race finishing 1st – Edward Henwood , 2nd – Bastiano Atti , and 3rd – Luke Curle – Wandsworth 1 – 2 – 3 !!!
There was a lot of excitement and extra motivation for swimmers who raced in the ” Hot Heats ” for additional prizes ;
our winners were : Ben Astbury – twice ( with one race won by the smallest of margins 0.01 sec ) , Alessio Carraretto and Olivia Hill – once (won again by 0.01 sec ) .
Well done to all those who competed ( Ben and Josh Astbury , Rahul Bansal , Bastiano Atti , Alessio Carraretto , Isis Ciurleo , Jack Clements , Luke Curle , Austen Gamble , George Harvey ,Edward Henwood , Olivia Hill , Leo Tamanji and Ruhan Wang ) and gained more racing experience ahead of the County and Regional Championships .
