COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIPS WRAP UP

What a weekend! Three massive days at our home pool to claim our fifth consecutive long course country championships, by just 44 points. The competition remained close throughout the weekend with Traralgon pushing us until the very end.

Check our weekend by the numbers below 👇🏼
78 athletes
311 individual swims
34 relays
45 finalists
140 finals
57 medals
20 🥇
19 🥈
19 🥉

Nicole Briscoe took home the award for the highest FINA points score of the meet in the 18/o 50 backstroke. Whilst Bradley Doolan won the award for most points by a multiclass swimmer across the weekend.

This result would not have been possible without the incredible work of our incredible coaching group - their investment in our athletes has been instrumental in their success. Thank you!

A massive thank you to our ARMY of volunteers who made the weekend so smooth. From team managing, organising coaches food, being on the entry gate, emptying rubbish bins, timekeeping, manning the BBQ and everything inbetween!! Our Club is a special place to be when everyone is so engaged in our success.

Congratulations to all involved in a great weekend!

It was wonderful to have some of our life members join us at our home Country Championships today!

We were joined by Tony Strahan, Peter Doak, John Beckworth, Sadat Hussain, Vicki Kelly, Karen Briscoe, Phoebe Mitchell and Libby Mitchell for afternoon tea and seeing our club chant before watching tonight’s finals session.

Our life members, many of whom are volunteers, have contributed a great amount of time and energy to our club to ensure its success across many years, culminating in the GSC of today that we know and love.
