There were great results at the Dudley Gala. A special mention to Kieran Richards and Victoria Galuzo who have been working very hard to compete in a gala for the first time. All our swimmers won medals and Victoria gets a 25m badge and certificate for her first complete length. There will be quite a few pbs, mostly for the younger swimmers.
