Megan also collected Silver in both the 800M Freestyle and 200M Butterfly and Bronze in the 1500M Freestyle, and was also crowned 6th overall in the Midlands for her age group and swam 8 PB's.

Alexandra Harris (Aged 13) also gained another 2 National Qualifying Times which takes her haul to 5 NTQ's for the season, and she also topped the medals haul with a truly remarkable 6 medals in total from the Championships. Gaining Gold in the 200M Freestyle, Silver in the 400M, 800M and 1500M Freestyle and Bronze in the 100M Freestyle and 100M Butterfly.

Lauren Holland (Aged 11) swam 8 PB's and Paige Norry-Addison (Aged 11) also swam 7 PB's and they both also reached the finals of the 200M Butterfly. Well Done.
