Swim Meets

We have seen the commencement of external swim meets and already some great times have been achieved by our swimmers.

Congratulations to Joseph Assi, Joab Hada, Summer Shrestha & Unish Shrestha on their swims at the Swimming NSW LC Qualifying Meet held at SOPAC last weekend

This weekend Vanessa Ozols is competing at the Swimming NSW Multi-Class Championships. Have great swims Vanessa and may the whale be with you

The Swimming NSW Junior Metropolitan Championships are being held next weekend (18th & 19th December) at SOPAC. We have a team of three swimmers competing. We wish Joseph Assi, Unish Shrestha & Chloe Ton the best of luck in their events and may the whale be with each of you too

Club Championship Record

Last Saturday Matthew Vicic swam a new club record time in the 14 Year Boys 100m Butterfly Championship. Matthew swam a personal best time of 1:11.58 and this broke the previous record held by Brett Turner (1:20.40 set in the 1977/78 season) by almost 9 seconds. Congratulations Matthew, keep up the fast flying. 😊

 

Christmas Activities

Well who would believe that we are nearly half way through the club season. Next Saturday (18th December) is our last swim before a two week break for Christmas and New Year. We will be holding a number of activities next Saturday morning:

  • Squad Christmas party
  • Novelty races and events
  • Breakfast with the Stars
  • Christmas Hamper draw

The club is again funding the Christmas raffle hamper prizes and these will be drawn following club races. So make sure you are at club races next Saturday morning otherwise you will miss out on all the fun

Club races will resume on Saturday 8th January, 2022.

Squad Training Break

The last training session for 2021 will be held on Thursday, 23rd December. Training will resume on Tuesday, 4th January, 2022,
