A special mention goes to Emily, who took part in her very first gala, competing in the 50m Backstroke—an exciting milestone!
Everyone had a fantastic time, not only racing but also making friends and enjoying the team atmosphere.
A huge thank you to our team managers—Constance, Helen and Bec—and to our coach David, without whom attending these events would not be possible. We’d also like to thank all our coaches for their continued support poolside each week.
A strong all-round performance—well done to everyone who competed!
