Results & Report

Wow. In only the clubs 2nd year back in the Arena League for many years and our first in the West Midlands league, the team took 1st place with a total of 209 points. A lead of 17 points over 2nd place.

Every member of the team really stepped up to the occasion and all swimmers gave it their all to get the best results for the team. I would like to give a big mention to those that swam up into the age groups above and also to Katie P and Hannah C, who were our only 2 open age group girls in the team and filled in all the extra races (no matter how tired they were!).

What was also noted by the coaches was our efforts outside of the racing, we were the only club to do pre-pool and the only club to use the full 30 minutes of warmup. We were also by far the best club at cheering on every race, with the whole team cheering at the end of our lane for the final 2 open age group relays.

The draw for round 2 has been made and our team list will be coming out shortly. If we want to repeat the success of round 1 then we will have to work especially hard in training, improving on some of our skills and stroke technique and also making sure to attend every training session!
