29 Swimmers traveled to ISB last weekend to compete against 1000 other swimmers from across SE Asia in the annual ISB Swim Fest competition. Swimmers are permitted to compete in 4 individual events and 2 relay events. This year saw a move towards a more competitive event where for the senior swimmers 50m fly was replaced by the 100m fly, for many swimmers this was their first experience swimming the event in competition and everyone should be incredibly proud of themselves.

118 individual swims were completed of which 91 were personal best times, this is a 77 % personal best rate – this is a hugely successful meet against some of the most competitive swim teams in the region. The team went with a focus on the average points trophy (total number of swimmers / total number of points) Shrewsbury finished in 4th place with an average of 14.56 points and were the highest placed team with the smallest number of swimmers. Bangkok Patana won both the team trophy – 1748 points and with 98 swimmers scored an average 18.02 points per swimmer to also win the average points trophy.

A huge congratulations goes out to every swimmer who supported the team over the weekend, a special mention goes out to the following swimmers:

Prim C 8 & Under

25m Breaststroke 2nd Place

25m Freestyle 3rd Place

50m Backstroke 1st Place

50m Freestyle 2nd Place
