Beeches’ Junior Squad made the short trip to Wyndley on Saturday night to swim in the final round of this year’s Diddy League.
Achieving eight personal best times on the night, and eight top three finishers, the small band of loyal swimmers battled the odds against the top three teams in division two of the Nuneaton Junior League (affectionately known as the Diddy League).
Top finishers on the night were:
Becky Gulliver who came 2nd in the 10/under 50 Free, 4th in the 12/under 50 Free and 2nd in the 10/under 25 Butterfly; Trearna Hart who came 3rd in the 10/under 50 Breaststroke and 5th in the 11/under 50 Backstorke; Ella Payne who came 3rd in the 12/under 50 Butterfly and also 3rd in the 11/under 50 Butterfly; Ellison Hart who came second in the 10/under 50 Backstroke – whose time was pipped by 0.01 by one of his sisters Catrise Hart who also came second in the girls’ 10/under 50 Backstroke! Lastly but by no means least came Sophia Deans, who came 3rd in the girls 11/under 50 Free and 5th in the 11/under 50 Breaststoke.
Special mention to Mark Booth – this was his first ever gala, and Mark said that he enjoyed the night – although it was too hot!
Well done to all the swimmers on the night – they had lots of FUN and swam their hearts out!
