Updated Swimmer Speed Rankings May 2025.

Here are the results from the sports day at Rugby on 4th May 2025. Well done everyone.

Results from Rugby Games are attached.

Sam Lamb has been missed off  Event 3. He has a 3rd place plaque to come.

Jo Patterson was sent off on 47 secs instead of 67 in Event 16 so his net time should be 68.38.

Many congratulations to the following swimmers who beat their entry times by more than 15%. You will all get a super fast swimmer certificate for your efforts.

25m Breaststroke     Amos Mc Grattan

25m Freestyle            Ralhie Palmer, Jo Patterson, and Matthew Lewis

50m Freestyle            Ralphie Palmer and Jo Patterson

I am still trying to get the results from the NASCH gala. We still do no have funding for pool hire for our gala. I will continue to try but we may have to pay for it ourselves this year. 

Welcome to Dominic Patterson (Josiah’s father) who has signed up as a helper. Many thanks.
