A quick reminder that the Junior Squad swimmers are still at Walsall’s QMBS tonight at 18:30 with Helen, and that the Seniors and Masters are back at Handsworth with Simon and Louis at 19:30. Any queries please let us know.

It was a great start to the 2016 Nuneaton and District Junior League (affectionately known as the Diddy League) for Perry Beeches SSS swimming club.

Coming first on the night by 1 point, means the team are well placed at the start of the season. Twelve personal best times shows the commitment to training that the swimmers have.

The 20 first places on the night went to: Jacob Dunn (10/u 50 Free); Kadijha Cox (9’s 25 Breast); The 11/under girls medley relay team (Catrise Hart, Trearna Hart, Becky Gulliver and Sophia Deans); The 11/under boys medley relay team (Ellison Hart, Lewis Carless, Harvey Higgins and Vinaye Gaddu); Kadijha Cox (10’s 50 Breast); Girls 11/under Freestyle relay (Sophia deans, Becky Gulliver, Catrise Hart and Trearna Hart); Boys 11/under Freestyle relay (Harvey Higgins, Lewis Carless, Ellison Hart and Vinaye Gaddu); Ella Payne (12/u 50 Butterfly); Ellison Hart (11/u 50 Backstroke); Harvey Higgins (11/u 50 Butterfly); Carys Higgins (9’s 25 Butterfly); The Girls Cannon (Sophia Deans, Becky Gulliver, Maddie Hughes, Ella Payne, Charlotte Coley, Kadijha Cox, Abbie Fuller, Carys Higgins); The Girls 12/u Freestyle relay (Ella Payne, Maddie Hughes, Trearna Hart and Eleanor Elwell); Lewis Carless (11/u 50 Breaststroke); The Boys Cannon (Lewis Carless, Harvey Higgins, Ellison Hart, Daniel Job, Antwone Fergusson, Jacob Dunn, Ethan Davidson, Mason Carless); Kadijha Cox (9’s 25 Backstroke); Sophia Deans (11/u 50 Freestyle); Harvey Higgins (11/u 50 Freestyle); The Girls 12/u medley relay team (Trearna Hart, Eleanor Elwell, Maddie Hughes, Ella Payne); The Mixed Cannon (Kadijha Cox, Ethan Davidson, Charlotte Coley, Antwone Fergusson, Becky Gulliver, Harvey Higgins, Sophia Deans and Lewis Carless).

With 23 other top three places, it was a very healthy result for this year’s Junior Squad team: Ethan Davidson (Boys 9/u 25 Breaststroke); Catrise Hart (Girls 12/u 50 Backstroke); Ellison Hart (Boys 12/u 50 Backstroke); The 9 year old boys medley relay team (David Coleman, Ethan Davidson, Mason Carless and Jack Chang); Harvey Higgins (12/u 50 Butterfly); The Girls 10/u medley relay team (Charlotte Coley, Libby Jones, Abbie Fuller and Emma Fuller); Catrise Hart (Girls 11/u 50 Backstroke); The girls 9’s Freestyle relay (Kadijha Cox, Sai Ashman, Carys Higgins and Evie Head); The boys 9’s Freestyle relay (David Coleman, Ethan Davidson, Mason Carless and Jack Chang); Daniel Job (12/u 50 Breaststroke); The Girls 10/u Freestyle relay (Charlotte Coley, Tegan Nolan, Abbie Fuller, Libby Jones); The Boys 10/u Freestyle relay (Jacob Dunn, Dylan Hunt, Antwone Fergusson, Jack Robins); Becky Gulliver (11/u 50 Butterfly); Mason Carless (Boys 9’s 25 Butterfly); Lewis Carless (Boys 12/u 50 Freestyle); Antwone Fergusson (Boys 10/u 50 Backstroke); Charlotte Coley (Girls 10/u 50 Backstroke); Mason Carless (Boys 9’s 25 Freestyle); Carys Higgins (Girls 9’s 25 Freestyle); The Boys 12/u Freestyle relay (Harvey Higgins, Vinaye Gaddu, Ellison Hart and Daniel Job); Sophia Deans (Girls 12/u 50 Breaststroke); Emma Fuller (Girls 10/u 25 Butterfly); The Boys 12/u medley relay team (Vinaye Gaddu, Ellison Hart, Harvey Higgins and Daniel Job).

One very happy coach Helen Pordage is pictured with some of the swimmers on the night. Big thanks to Andi Carless and Kal Gaddu for stewarding on the night, and also to Yvonne Rimmer, Sareena Gaddu and Drew Rimmer, who came along to officiate for the club. WELL DONE BEECHES!!!!

No junior Squad session on Thursday 21/04/2016, due to the upgrade of the changing rooms at Queen Mary Boys School.
