District Swimming Gala 2010

District Swimming Gala 2010

Hi All,

On Saturday 27th November our Scouts took part in the District Swimming Gala held at Wyndley Pool.

We put together a full team of 6 swimmers which meant that we were able to take part in all of the races.

The format of the evening was as follows;

Scouts – Under 12′s Freestyle, Back Stroke & Breast Stroke
Scouts – Under 14′s Freestyle, Back Stroke & Breast Stroke
Scouts – Relay
Scouts – Diving

At the end of all of the races we managed to qualify for 2 finals; the under 14′s backstroke and under 14's breastroke. Superb!

I am pleased to say that Matthew U won a silver medal in his event, fantastic result!

I would like to thank the following Scouts who gave up their time on Saturday evening to take part;

Matthew U, Jenny C, Jacob B, Pia K-J, Vincent P & Lawrence P

They all gave 110% and did the Group proud.

I would also like to thank the parents who watched from the spectator area, for giving up their time and supporting the team, and a special thank-you to Andy P for 'volunteering' last minute to join me at the poolside!

Well done to everyone!

All the best,

Chief
