Thanks to all swimmers, helpers and supporters who ‘battled’ through the snow and headed ‘up North’ to Worksop Leisure Centre for the first round of the 2016 Sports Centre League. I think all who were there would agree it was well worth the trip on a night that saw 21 PBs and 4 new times and impressive swims, despite illness and broken fingers!
PBs for: Michael (100m IM & 100m Free); Bethan (100m IM); Gaby (100m Back); Judd (50m Back); Ava (50m Back); Edward (100m Breast); Stanley (50m Fly & 100m IM); Connor (100m IM & 100m Breast); Dylan (50m Breast & 50m Fly); Angelina (50m Breast & 50m Fly); Briony (100m Breast); Chloe (100m Back & 100m Free); Alice (50m Free); Dan (100m Free); Isabelle (100m Free).
New times for: Jonny (100m Fly, 100m Free & 100m Back); Raj (100m Breast).
Special mentions:
Esther, Bethan & Chloe – for fabulous swims despite illness.
Dylan – for fabulous swims despite a broken finger!
Angelina – for finding a hat that stays on!
Gaby & Jonny – for the 6 point-ers; so too Chloe, Bethan, Dahlia & Rebecca for their medley relay 1st.
Briony and Isabelle – you may have had to wait a while for your swims but oh boy, was it worth it! With 12 seconds and 24 seconds respectively off your previous bests, we can wait all night for those!
Matthew, Grace, Efan and Charlotte – for being the ‘happy, smiley relay team’ all night☺
Dan – for THE most casual prep for a race EVER!
Stanley – for the masterclass in underwater work.
There are no stars in our team – you are all stars. Thank you one and all for your amazing effort, team spirit that is second to none and for thoroughly professional performances.
Thanks also to the backroom staff and the ‘fans’!
