West District swimming

Two very exciting finals.

Nine clubs are taking part in the Clyde Coast Winter Championships which will take place on Saturday 1 October at the Citadel Ayr.

There are three places left if anybody is interested in taking part.

The Scottish Club Championships were held in the RCP on June 18^th three clubs from the West had entries. Well done to Clydebank who retained the Mary Black Rosebowl, Grangemouth who were 5^th and North Ayrshire who we 6^th. It was a great day, with lots of girls experiencing their first National competition in a superb venue.

After a great performance at Rio, the National Synchro Committee is looking to bring up Team GB Duet Katie Clark and Olivia Federici for a masterclass display and presentation on their Olympic journey. Dates have still to be confirmed but watch this space for an exciting opportunity.

The next skills day is Sunday 11^th September in Bo’ness, good luck to all swimmers participating.

The next competition is the Scottish Nationals and Age Groups in Drumchapel on 29^th and 30^th October, hope to see some of you there!

For the first time the coaches took the team done a day early to compete in the Lincoln Vulcans meet at Sheffield.  This must have done the trick as the team won Division 2 by a huge margin and it was very exciting sitting on poolside watching. They all swam brilliantly, with some of the swims posting times which would have won the Division 1 races. They all behaved impeccably throughout the weekend and were a credit to themselves, their families and their clubs. Big thanks to coaches Scott, Craig and Danielle and team manager Linzi who made the weekend a great success. Thanks also to Jean King and Alison Finlayson for their help.
