The 5th session of the Club Championships took place on Tuesday 26th February with the 800m Freestyle as the main event.  During this event Tabitha Vaughan destroyed her previous PB and Female Club Record by over 28 seconds with a finishing time of 10:47.30.  Tabby’s dad took a little longer with a finishing, yet still respectable time of 14:39.13.

Jack Gregorius also achieved a fantastic Male Club Record with a finish time of 12:11.76 only two heats after Oli Vercoe had beaten the Club Record with a time of 12:29.55.

Well done to all who took part.

The 4th session of the Club Championships took place on Sunday 24th Feb which saw over 40 swimmers taking part.  At the end of the session Tabitha Vaughan, Steven Upperdine and Dan Clarke decided to have a rematch of their earlier 100m Freestyle event.  This time Steven triumphed with an exceptional 1:05.60 finish time.  Following a stewards enquiry by the other two swimmers which claimed Steven had created a tsunami during his start it was agreed the result would still stand.  However, as a result of Stevens pool entry the pool level will be approximately 1 metre lower the next time you swim.

The 2nd session of the Club Championships held on Tuesday 19th February saw all swimmers achieve a PB in both events.  Whilst many of the swimmers had never competed in a timed 200m and 400m individual medley the success of the evening was highlighted by the fact novice and experienced swimmers all finished with fantastic times.

Well done to all who took part.
