Solihull Diddy Warm-up Gala

Beeches11s
A very depleted team, mainly due to School holidays, and with only 5 boy swimmers, traveled to Solihull for the first Diddy warm-up gala of the season.
The swimmers who were there had a thoroughly good time. For  Jack Skett – a 9 year old, who has only recently come up into the lengths group, it was a good start to gala life. He asked if he could do this every week! All the 9 year olds enjoyed themselves, which is encouraging  for the coaches. Atmosphere on poolside was verygood, and all of the swimmers were well behaved.
PBs on the night:
Dylan Langston on both breast and fly

James Nankervis back and free
Kynan Walker on back and breast
Raenne Davidson free

Sunday 7th October saw four Beeches swimmers take part in an Olympic event that took place at Tudor Grange in Solihull. The Solihull Aquathlon, organised by Solihull Tri Club, had four Beeches entrants – James Nankervis, who as a 9 year old came 8th out of 16 competitors in the 9/10 category; Jessica Deans, who came 2nd in the 9/10 category; and Jessica Jones and Katie Gulliver, who came third and second respectively in the 13/14 category. For their first attempt, which saw them swim in the pool, run outside bare foot, and put on trainers and T shirt and run, they all did amazingly well. Congrats to all four of them.
