South Mainland ASC took 6 of their swimmers to the North District Sprint Championships held at Inverness.
In age 13/14 events, Donnie Price, 14, achieved PBs in each of his 50m races in the heats and qualified for finals in the breaststroke and butterfly where he improved times once more. With a 30.43 he finished 5th in the butterfly, having earlier in the day achieved a bronze medal with a time of 35.18 in the breaststroke. Donnie also swam the open 100m IM and had a tremendous 3 second PB for a 1.07.74.
Karl Eldridge, 14, accomplished four good PBs in his races, with his biggest improvement achieved in the butterfly with 34.09. His younger brother Darin, 13, gained a PB in the two races that he swam, with 31.49 for freestyle and 40.38 in the breaststroke.
South Mainland girls, Sarah Keay, 14, and Kirsty Laurenson, 14, both had good swims. Sarah was very pleased to gain a PB in her breaststroke with 39.94 finishing in 11th place and was satisfied to be on her entry times in her other events. Kirsty also managed a PB with a 31.52 for her freestyle and was within a second of entry times for her fly and backstroke.
In the youngest age group, 10-12 years, Eddie Price, 11, made PBs in every event, and with another year to go in the age groups was delighted to make three finals. He swam a 31.40 for his freestyle to finish 5th, 42.88 in breaststroke for 6th and 37.00 in butterfly for 7th.
The club again wishes to thank Mainlands, Freefield Pharmacy & Northlink Ferries for their continued support.
