Farnham win round 2 of their National League campaign

Farnham swimmers dominated the pool again in the second round of the National League Division 2 at Basingstoke last Saturday.

They were up against: Wey Valley, Basingstoke B, Chalfont, Maidenhead and Chicester.

The whole team was fired up resulting in a total of 9 club records falling to

  • Rebecca  Fisher (1:10.48s 100 IM)
  • Rob Dale (1:05.44s 100m IM)
  • Jack Peters (1:23.07s 100 Breast)
  • Rhys Davies (1:19.54s 100 Back)
  • Lucy Peters (36.73s 50 Fly)

  • Kayleigh Copeland (1:14.86s 100 Back)
  • Pippa Little-John (34.75s 50 Freestyle)

Head coach Marilyn Flook said “This was a great result, every swimmer gave 100% and the result showed the vast improvements the club has made over the last year which we hope to consolidate by gaining promotion. With 3 teams going up to Division 1 we must be favorites at the divisional finals on the 13th December”.

As Farnham had 24 first places and 12 second places out of the 50 events on the evening there was hardly a race where a Farnham swimmer was not contesting the lead.

Congratulations to Amelia Oury, Jack Peters, Alex Leonard, Lucy Peters, Ellie Walton, Addy Vachon, Kayleigh Copeland, James Butcher, Connor Price, Rosie Webster and Pippa Littlejohn who all won their events.
