Well done to all the swimmers who took part in the Junior Swim League 2019. After 3 rounds of swimming Leeds came out the strongest in all 3 rounds and were crowned the National Junior League champions 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 19 first place finishes. 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 great and it really helped motivate the swimmers.
There were too many amazing swims to mention them all individually but a special well done to Jacob O'Donnell (9yrs), Valeria Pinera-Levita (10yrs) and Daniel Ransom (11yrs) who achieved awards for top Boy and top Girl in their age groups.
