We’re less than two weeks away from the 2019 Battle on the Bay Swimming Carnival on Saturday 9th March 2019!
It’s our turn to host the carnival this year, which we initiated back in 2010 as a competition between neighbouring swimming clubs located in the Iron Cove Bay area. The Carnival has been a huge success and is now into its 10th year!
This year Drummoyne will be competing against Ashfield, Enfield and Leichhardt Swimming Clubs to determine the fastest Club on the Bay! Every swimmer will earn valuable points for their Club in the fight for the Battle on the Bay Trophy and the fastest individual swimmers will be awarded Age Group medals. The highlight of the Carnival is always the relay events, culminating in the thrilling 10x50m Freestyle relay between the fastest swimmers in each club.
The Carnival will start promptly at 3pm and finish at 7.30pm on Saturday 9th March 2019. Swim Club will be on as usual in the morning. We will have a BBQ and grand raffle prizes on offer at the Carnival.
Entries are $6 per person. We will be collecting entries and fees this Saturday, so please bring along cash to pay.
You can choose to race Freestyle, Breaststroke, Backstroke and Butterfly. Under 6’s will race a 20m distance. 7-8 year olds will race 30m in all strokes but, for Freestyle, can choose to race 50m instead of 30m. Everyone else will race a 50m distance in each stroke.
Further information about this year’s Carnival can be found here. We look forward to all of our Club members joining in to help us win the ultimate prize – the Battle on the Bay Trophy!
Last Saturday morning on pool deck we had the final of the historic Tom Brown 50m Backstroke Handicap race. It was great to have Brown family members in attendance including life member Lynette Brown and her sister Jenny who are both granddaughters of Tom Brown.
It was a an excitingly close race with Jessica Bell taking out first place from lane 3. The trophy was presented by Lynette and Jenny as well as Tom’s great grandchildren. Congratulations all who made the final!
We also had the 100m Freestyle Championship Open Mens and Womens age group and open heats. Will Taylor took home the Mens open heat while Annette Jamieson zoomed to first place in the Womens open heat. Congratulations to all swimmers!
