The junior team consisted of many swimmers for whom it was their first ever BISAC, the swimmers looked professional in their team kit and remained calm throughout the event which was a particularly hot day. 176 personal best times were achieved, this is an amazing result. The team continues to grow and grow, you should be incredibly proud of yourselves.

On Sunday the Seniors took part in their meet, delayed slightly by the rain. For many junior school children this was their first ever senior competition. Moving from single age groups to an age group that can span 3 school years is particularly demanding. The swimmers who competed at the weekend took it all in their stride and performed amazing smashing their personal best times.
