Barramundi Continue with Amazing Success!
By admin on March 17, 2009This was the last weekend of the County Championship and no less fantastic but a tad more tiring for some on the last Sunday – especially the finals in the evening…
A total of 1 Gold, 4 Silvers, 4 Bronzes and a further 2 Silvers in the relays were brought home.
Alex Murphy continued with his success and gained a further Gold in 100 brst, Silver in 50 fly and 2 Bronzes in 200 and 100 free. He completed a hat trick by claiming the Jnr Champion Cup for his 100 m Breaststroke and breaking the County Meet record (1.09.09) making that 5 County Meet records broken in total. This was also a NQT.
Olly took another Bronze in the 50 fly and David claimed another Silver also in the 50 fly and Bronze for the 50 back. A further Bronze went to Mollie for a fab 50 brst. Shannon got a Bronze for her 50 free.
More finalists include Daniella, Poppy, and Matthew.
2 more edge-of-seat relays entertained the roaring crowd. The 9/10 year Team brought home well deserved Silvers in both the Free and Medley Relays! Well done Olly, David, Luc and Matthew.
The 11/12 yrs boys team, Andrew, Edward, Daniel, Richard fought in a tough race and claimed 7th spot in the Medley Relay and Daniel, Jamie, Richard, Andrew in the Free style Relay gained 10th spot – in a field of 15. Well done boys!
Daniella, Olly, David, Alex earned Regional Qualification times.
There were more well executed races from Bethan, Yassmine, Lucy, Roshani, Ricky, Katie.
Again, nearly all swims were personal bests.
Over all we finished 8th out of 18 clubs with 276 points!
Well done, Barramundi Swimmers and of course , special congratulations to Iryna, Head Coach.
