After having been delayed (round one normally takes place in January) by the snow, this was Beeches first major outing since the Christmas Break.

Against tough opposition from Halesowen, Stourbridge and Oldbury, the Beeches team fought boldy to come fourth on the night.

With wins from Jessica Deans (Girls 11/under freestyle), the Mixed 15/under Medley Relay and Freestyle races (Jessica Jones, Dominic Blackwell, Sareena Gaddu, Dominic Cotter, Katie Gulliver and Jamie Keyte), Dominic Cotter (Boys 15/under Butterfly) and Dan Smith (Open Mens Breastroke) it was a good start to the year. In total there were 19 top 3 finishes out of 40 races.
