Well done to all swimmers who competed in the first 2 sessions of our Club Championships last Saturday 21 September at JAGs Sports Centre , Dulwich .
It was absolutely fantastic to see swimmers from every squad and training pathway racing in a wide variety of events starting with the 25m of all strokes for our youngest participants aged 8 years & under and 400 IM for the more experienced ones and finishing with the 100m freestyle for all swimmers aged 9 years and over .
There were some fast swims , outstanding performances , tons of PBs as well as new times achieved for further meets in the season .
Four new Club Records were set :
Two by Edward Henwood ( 15 years ) in the 50 and 200 butterfly events in times of 26.56 and 2.15.21 respectively
One by Oliver Cunningham ( 17 & Over ) in 50 backstroke in a time of 27.78
One by Samuel Liau ( 12 years ) in 50 backstroke in a time of 32.56
What a start to the new season !
A massive thank you to the army of volunteers , marshals , both technical officials and non- technical support for devoting their Saturday to help with the smooth running of the competition .
We could not have done it without you .
We are looking forward to seeing everyone at the second round on Sunday 20 October as well as the 800m event and NUEL meet before that .
