Despite a relatively small turn out from Kingsbridge Kingfishers at this years’ 3 day event at the City of Plymouth Meet, those who competed didn’t disappoint.
We had 22 swimmers who took part winning a total of 27 medals. Ben Cusack made 3 Championship Finals with a 5th and 4th place and a podium finish winning 2nd place in the Male 16 and over 100 IM and Rosie Lawrence made the Championship Final of the 100M Fly where she came in 7th place.
Our medal winners included:
Other swimmers who took part gaining some impressive Personal Best times were Oliver Amstead Simons, Jess Baker, Thomas Cusack, Henry Langman, Oliver Pound, Jess Stewart, Oliver Zaffiro.
We also had Emily Lawrence swimming 4 exhibition swims – where her entry time is faster than the qualifying time, and she gained 3 Personal Best times on some already very quick times! Rosie Lawrence and Ellie Langman also had exhibition swims in the female 14 year and over 100 IM.
Myself and coaches, Jo Lawrence and Ainz Charlton are immensely proud of all the swimmers who took part and hope that next year will see more club members attending and achieving great results.
