Sunday, 20 May 2012

Congratulations to everyone who took part in this year’s Spring Sprints Galas and thank you to everyone who helped out in whatever capacity. There is an enormous amount of work involved with organising these gala and so it is always a pleasure to see the galas run smoothly and those involved achieving their own personal goals and successes.

The time for each swimmer was recorded and all events decided on a ‘Declared Winner’ basis with awards presented to the six fastest swimmers in each age group.  The results are available in the downloads section.

Hats off to the following swimmers who set new club records:

·         Molly Monaghan, 30.45 – 14/15 Years 50m Freestyle

·         Michal Stankowiak, 25.66 – 16+ 50m Freestyle

·         Michal Stankowiak, 30.26 – 16+ 50m Backstroke

·         Jaime Sanchez-Capuchino, 29.20 - 14/15Y 50m Butterfly

Championship cups were awarded as follows:

·         Junior Girls’ Champion:  Katie Brady

·         Junior Boys’ Champion: Matthew Cooper

·         Senior Girls’ Champion: Nichelle Acosta

·         Senior Boys’ Champion: Josh Akcicek

·         Ladies’ Champion: Pip Nuttall

·         Men’s Champion: Adam Gallimore

And finally, special thanks to Team Great Britain swimmer and potential Olympian, Lauren Quigley, for giving up her Saturday afternoons to make the medal presentations.  Lauren is an inspiration to our younger swimmers and we are incredibly proud of her success so far.

Tadpoles Gala 2012

Wednesday, 02 May 2012

This year’s Tadpoles Galas are taking place at Grand Central Pool on Saturday 15th September and Saturday 29th September (warm up time yet to be confirmed).

 

These galas are graded, which means they are closed to swimmers who are faster than the published entry times and so are a really great opportunity for novice swimmers to have a taste of competitive swimming.  Any swimmer who swims faster than the B qualifying time will receive a “speeding ticket”.

 

There are six age groups: 9, 10, 11, 12, 13/14, 15/18 years and awards will be made to the six fastest swimmers in B and C grades in each event.  There are also club aggregate trophies for the overall girls’ and boys’ teams and individual trophies for the best performing boy and girl in each age group.

 

Entry forms and graded times are available to download by following the attached link Here. Completed forms and cheques for the entry fees (£2.50 per event) should be returned to Alison Nuttall by 23 June 2012 at the latest.  Personal best times for each event entered are required.
