Club Championship 2016
Our Club Championships is a great gala for swimmers to gain race experience and have the chance to win medals and trophies racing against other members of the club of a similar age. Results are based on the age group that swimmers are in – e.g. the 10/13 years 50 Breast has 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in the 10/11 age group, and the same in the 12/13 age group. The ‘open’ events are for swimmers of any age to enter, but don’t let that put you off. I want to encourage as many swimmers as possible to enter – the more swimmers there are, the more fun the galas will be for everyone! Please ask me if you have any questions about which events to enter or how the gala works.

Swim Trafford Early Bird Gala result 17.09.16
I want to say a huge well done to all the swimmers who raced at the Swim Trafford Early Bird meet on Saturday 17th September. I was pleased to see PBs and medals for many of our swimmers and good race skills on show from all those involved. Our team spirit was obvious from the chanting and encouragement for swimmers while they raced. Lets keep that up!
We are coming into a busy few months for team galas and open meets so keep training hard if you want to see positive results. It is important to remember that while medals are fantastic, gaining PBs shows swimmers their own personal improvement. Everyone had at least one PB which reflected the great effort I’ve seen in training over summer and in the early part of September.
