CMB MSNSW Relay meet 2024

On Sunday 14th July, we had a team of 16 swimmers attend the MSNSW Relay Meet.

Our team consisted of: Kelly, Nicole Grant C, Alana, Greg, Michael, Laura,Victor, Russell, Belinda, Jim P,  Angelica, Heather, Grant R, Owen and Suzie.

As a team we did exceptionally well and finished 8th overall and 6th on average points (Average points work differently here to a normal Branch Meet- each age group is used and the number of swimmers ).

Congratulations to Alana for breaking the W35-39 State Record in the 100 Backstroke. She swam the 100 BK in 1:10.05. The old state record was 1:10.64.

Thank you to Stanford and Amy for coming along and supporting us. 

Finally, thank you to Belinda and Kelly for organising our teams. It is a huge effort to create the teams with all the different requests and you both did an excellent job.

Our club spirit and camaraderie was on display yesterday. It was truly humbling to see all the encouragement, high fives and support that we gave each other, truly making our club a special place to be.

One final note–  thank you to Grant R, Alana, Kelly and Grant C who had to re swim their 4 x 100 Mixed Freestyle relay when the timing system didn’t work. Other clubs pulled out of the re-do, but we are thankful that our team swam it.  We owe you all a chocolate 🙂
