2018 Club Championships Role of Honour / Records

What a great weekend of swimming in this season’s Club Championships.  The third oldest championship record broken by Erin H by 1/100th of a second (Clare Crewdson’s 1983 100m Butterfly) amongst 20 other new records set.  Asking around after the event, there was nobody to recall 21 records going in a single Championships.  Nearly every swimmer set at least 1 PB during the event, near enough 70% of swims being new best times.

Water Polo team secure league title

The senior men’s water polo team have won the Bolton and District League title, securing first place with a comprehensive 17-10 win against City of Chester.  Needing a win to guarantee the title, Stretford race into an 8-0 lead meaning the outcome never looked in doubt against an experienced Chester team.  The Dolphins only lost one match all season to Bridgefield, who they will meet again in the cup final in the coming weeks.  A league and cup double is a possibility.
