We had an absolutely wonderful Christmas time at the fantastic Trafford Borough Christmas Cracker. We saw some outstanding swimming from all the Trafford clubs and the other visitors, which made for a really uplifting day!
Our swimmers absolutely smashed it with PB after PB and 67 (yes 6-7 sorry) medals. It’s a wonderful total and matches our huge medal tally from back in 2021!
Thanks to Coach Leah for great energy and feedback throughout the meet, ALL our Officials of which there were many, our medal desk, raffle and Marshall volunteers and Ian, Kristina, Nick and Jo as our excellent TMs.
Here’s a run down of the medals. Special shout out to Imogen for lots of gold medals and great times this weekend, Evelyn for her first big gala, Etta, Hugo and Ian Z for lots of golds also and Michael W for an incredible comeback swim for 2:00.01 in the 200 Free.
It was so fun to welcome back our 3 retired swimmers Dylan, Max and Michael who came back for some fun racing, with Michael taking the victory in the 100 Free face off (plus the excellent 200), Max victory in the 100 IM and Dylan in the 50 Free. It’s lovely to see them back in the pool!
