Our BOK swimmers’ competitive, fast performances were terrific at the Open and final weekend of the Age Group NER Championships @Ponds Forge and Leeds (31st April, 1st May, and 7th and 8th May).
With a great team ethos – the squads delivered many PBs, final positions, and seven medals overall. Highlights include a fantastic medal haul by Daniel Jackson, who gained gold and three silvers!
A big thank you to our dedicated coaches, who provide fantastic support and detailed feedback for our swimmers to reflect upon to perform even better in the future.
We do not forget our exceptional team managers and parents who make all this possible!
