County Championships

January / February 2020 (back to calendar)
Report:

Congratulations to all 35 of our swimmers that took part in the Oxon & North Bucks County Championships over the past 5 weekends.

We had many excellent results including county champions, regional qualifying times and club records, making this our most successful counties in many years.

Here are the highlights:

Patrick R-B dominated the 12 years breaststroke, winning all 3 events as well as gaining 2 regional times and 2 club records.

Magnus P-T took gold in the 50 Free and 100 Free, with an exciting and nail-biting finish to the 100 freestyle.
He also had 2 other finals in the 50 Fly and 50 Breaststroke, taking 3rd and 7th Finally… he gained 4 regional times and a ranking of 24th in England for the 50 freestyle!

Katie P, Lucy M and Sophia also gained regional qualification times in the 50 Breaststroke, 50 Backstroke and 50 Butterfly respectively, Katie gaining this time for the 5th year in a row.
Lucy achieved her time for the first time in 2 years, whilst Sophia’s 50 Butterfly ranked her 36th in England.

Sophia had an impressive meet with 100% PBs, her fast 10m underwater phases impressing the coaches and rest of the team.

We had a total of 14 finals from Katie P, Lucy M, Magnus P-T, Patrick R-B, Sophia P, Elena H, Ella J, Ian S, Chris A and Ewan S.

Our boys open relay team of Chris W, Ian S, Chris A and Ewan S took 3rd in the 4x50 medley relay.

Our boys 10-12 years freestyle relay team of Ben R-B, Lohan B, Joshua H and Patrick R-B narrowly missed out on a top 3, taking 4th place on the first day of the competition.

Finally a big shout out to Meg B, Ben H, Harrison J-P, Amy N, Tom J, Lucy M and Ella J for competing in the long- distance events, our biggest number of entries to these events.

Again a massive well done to everyone involved in the county championships, this was our biggest team in many years and yielded an incredible 116 points compared with 22 points from 2019.
The swimmers have also gained a total of 9 regional times so far (up from 2 last year) and have broken 27 club records.
A great start to 2020, our focus now turns to the Oxford, Gloucester, Bracknell and Luton meets, trying to gain even more regional times ready for the South East Regional Championships in April and May.
