Enterprise Cars Swim Team

Congratulations Chantel Koia 👏

A huge congratulations to Chantel from Enterprise Cars Swim Team on achieving her Inspector of Turns (IOT) qualification — a fantastic milestone!
It’s great to see parents taking their first step on the Technical Officials pathway through the Inspector of Turns (IOT) qualification and beginning to build their skills and experience. Your commitment to supporting swimming in our region is really appreciated.
Thank you for everything you contribute, Chantel.

🏊‍♂️ Looking ahead to later in the season…

We’ve attached details for two exciting away meets that Enterprise Swim Team will be attending as a club:
📍 Mt Maunganui – 27–28 June
📍 Hastings (HBPB Winter Champs) – 14–16 August

Our swimmers are training incredibly well and racing is such an important part of continuing to grow, improve, and build confidence in the pool.

HBPB Winter Champs will be a key meet for our season with 10 & under racing and relays across all age groups, so we’d love to see as many swimmers there as possible.

If you can, we really encourage families to try and make it along to at least one of these meets 🖤💗🏊‍♀️

🔥 HBPB Winter Short Course Championships – Coming This August! 🔥

Get this one locked into your calendars now! Our region’s premier short‑course showdown is hitting HBRAC from 14–16 August, and you won’t want to miss it.

Open to competitive swimmers of all ages, this is where our athletes race for Age Group titles, medals, and ribbons — the ultimate mid‑season test of speed and skill.

Visitors are absolutely welcome with loads of chances to race finals and earn visitor ribbons. It’s the perfect meet to chase NZ Short Course qualifying times, smash PBs, and go head‑to‑head with swimmers from across the region.

Fast racing, big energy, and plenty on the line — see you poolside in August! 🏊‍♂️💥🏅

Here are our finalists for the last session at the NZ Championships. All the best for a great finish swimmers.
