Bonfire Bash
Another excellent showing from our swimmers at the Spenborough Bonfire Bash on Sunday 14th November resulted in the team finishing 8th overall out of the 17 teams competing and handfuls of medals being carted home! Strong swims from everyone resulted in some great PBs and even when not achieving a PB, everyone was pretty much finishing in and around their PB times. As always, it’s difficult to pick out individual performances, but mentions have to go to Sam T and Bradley for achieving the top girl and top boy awards in the 9/10 year age group, outstanding efforts! Also a mention for a number of huge PBs (by 3 seconds or more) for Daniel B, Joni, Carlos, Joe ...

NER SC Championships
There were some great swims by our small squad at the North East Region SC Age Group Championships at Ponds Forge in November. 3/3 PBs for 12 year old Millie and 2 for 11 year old Carolina. In his last outing for Team Jorvik, 12 year old Alex managed 7 PBs from his 11 swims and finished in the top 10 in all but 2 events, narrowly missing out on a bronze medal in the 100m IM by 0.02 secs. We wish Alex all the best and look forward to following his progress in the future as he moves on to train with our friends at YCBC. Oliver also qualified but chose not to compete.
