First Weekend - 4th & 5th July 2011

Rachel Reilly was delighted with her swimmers performances over the first weekend of the Midland Bagcat Championships. The results speak for themselves with swimmers achieving personal best times and medal places.  Of the twelve swimmers competing seven finished within the top eight positions; Paige Norry-Addison (Aged 12) gained her first National Qualifying Time (NQT) for 100m Butterfly; Holly Barnett (Aged 13), Luke Smith (Aged 10) and Macauley Carline (Aged 14) all qualified for the finals.

Congratulations also to Holly Townson (Aged 10), Luke Smith, Paige Norry-Addison and Holly Barnett who all won bronze medals.
