Metro South West Area Junior Long Course Championships

What a meet for our team of 11 swimmers who competed at the MSW Area Junior Championships last weekend. From a total of 46 swims we saw 41 PB’s achieved, with 21 Finalists places, 2 Bronze medals (Joseph Assi & Unish Shrestha) and 1 Gold medal (Matthew Vicic who also qualified for the 200 metre Butterfly in the Metropolitan and State Championships) and 2 awesome relay swims. Everyone swam to their best and proudly represented the club. A fantastic result for every swimmer and our coaches!

Merrylands SwimFest & Masters Meets – Today

The big day has arrived. Good luck to all of our swimmers in these meets. We have a team of 8 (plus 1 relay team) competing in the Masters BPS Meet and 40 (plus 10 relay teams) in the SwimFest Meet. Good luck to all of our club members swimming in these meets.

We have a busy day today with the meet set up needing to be done straight after club races this morning. This will include:

  • Lane rope & backstroke flag changeover;
  • Gazebo placement (computer equipment & timing areas, marshalling & timekeeping);
  • Marshalling area seating;
  • Touch pad & timing system installation;
  • Pool deck spectator barriers.
