Cheddar Kingfishers

🌊🏊‍♀️ Final Kingfishers celebrations this weekend go to Audrey! 💙🧡

This weekend, Audrey took on the legendary Gwineas Open Water Swim – a race firmly embedded in Cornish swimming folklore and often regarded as the unofficial Cornish Open Water Championships.

With a distance of 3.8km… if you swim straight!, competitors faced what many described as the hardest conditions seen in the last 10 years. 🌊💨

Despite the challenging seas, Audrey showed incredible determination and resilience to complete this iconic event.

From the beach start to the finish line, Audrey swam with courage and kept her brilliant smile throughout, earning a well-deserved medal and memories that will last a lifetime.

Huge congratulations, Audrey – we’re all incredibly proud of you! 👏🏅

Thank you to Coach Louisa for taking a group of our swimmers to Clevedon, to work on Open Water swimming skills. It was a great success, and the swimmers then enjoyed some free time jumping off of the pontoon.
