Youth Coach David Clarke said.

I was really pleased with having three girls in 8 finals and with some great swimming at this standard of competition. Charlotte achieving some great PB's at a age when a lot of swimmers pack in, whilst Olivia being the only girl in her age group to reach all three backstroke finals and Maddy being awarded Top Girl in the 800M and adding two more NQT's to her list. Also well done to Jamie who competed well and gained a PB and Philippa, who despite being unfit gained a lot of experience for being there.

Full details of all the results and updated PB's can be found in the Competition Results section within Members Only.
