North West Regional Summer Championships 2016

Pamela Dale

After a hot sticky two and a half full weekends at Manchester and Liverpool Aquatic Centres throughout May, the Southport Swimmers did themselves and the club proud. Winning numerous medals, getting to many finals and most doing Pb’s in various events. In one age group/event the clubs swimmers got gold, silver and bronze and forth place (top four swimmers in the North West of England) in a number of finals Southport had three swimmers and in another had four swimmers with the reserve also from Southport. The club had 50 swimmers competing, one of the largest contingents there, the second most important competition behind the Nationals for age group/youth swimmers in the country. In the old age group (12-14) top overall club Southport came third top over all club and over all came forth top overall club for the second year in succession. This is a fantastic achievment, seeing the swimmers were competing against some of the top City squads in the country. Most of which are made up of six-eight clubs, of Southports size swimming under the metropolitain/clties name. WELL DONE TO ALL THE SWIMMERS.

The club now has 16 swimmers qualifying for the National Championships in Sheffield at the end of July begining of August.
