Our Club Captains broke three club records between them at the North East Regional Short Course Championships last weekend.

On Saturday, Luke Booth completed the 400m freestyle with a time of 3:56.13 beating George Russell’s record from November 2014. He won a bronze medal in the final later that day.

On Sunday, Luke followed that up with a time of 15:39.86 beating another of George Russell’s records from December 2015.  Luke won a gold medal in the process.

Our female Club Captain, Mollie Fisher competed in the final of 400m freestyle later that day with a time of 4:22.59 breaking her own record from November 2019. A bronze medal was her reward.

Well done to both our captains!

As a result of his performances at 1500m in the pool, Jack Finnie was recently selected to represent the NE region in Open Water events.

He has trained with the squad recently in Sunderland and more closer to home at Manvers Lake.

Last weekend saw him compete at the NW/NE Regional Championships where he achieved the gold medal in the 3000m.

Well done to Jack and we wish him well for the national competition at Thrybergh next month.

We’ve also added a new club record for this with Jack being the first to achieve 🙂

Following our win in round one of the league, we excelled again in round 2 on Saturday evening.  Please see below from Wath coach James Guy:
