Novice Meet at Barnet Copthall

Post Event Review

It was an early start for all involved, leaving Hillingdon at 07:30 to travel to Barnet Copthall Pool for an 08:15 warm up. With a little argument with routes, we arrived on time and joined a number of other teams for our first outing in some time.

We had four swimmers with us at this event - all boys between 9 and 12 - and all had entered the 50m Backcrawl, Breaststroke and Frontcrawl events. Each event was run with groupings based on entry times, and finals were grouped by age.

We had a couple of disqualifications on start, turn or finish - so the coaches will be working very hard on these over the next months, but we also had three placings in the finals and one just missing out (9th - 8 made it to the finals).

The final results were very impressive for one swimmer, who walked away with Gold in breaststroke, 4th in frontcrawl and 6th in backcrawl.

Well done to all the participants - you represented the club in a very good way, and you should be proud of your swims.
