Well done to all the swimmers who took part in the Junior Swim League. After 3 rounds of swimming Leeds came out the strongest in all 3 rounds and were crowned the National Junior League champions yesterday for the third year running. It certainly was an exciting afternoon with lots of fast racing and fun. It was great to see you all supporting each other and working together as a team. City of Leeds came out on top with 23 first place finishes and 9 meet records, an excellent team effort, WELL DONE!
A big thank you to all the supporters amongst others who provided all the hats and flags etc. Parents, thank you for all the effort that went in to supporting the team, you were all excellent, you looked good and it really helped motivate the swimmers.
