Very well done to all the swimmers who went to Tamworth. The results will be posted as soon as we get them. Highlights were Leanne’s excitement when she won a medal, Thomas’s speeding ticket for breaking the 20 second barrier in backstroke and finishing a really close second in the mixed relay to an unmixed team!

A really big thank you to Megan Williams who helped to make sure all the swimmers were at their starts on time.
