Last summer the George Wheaton Trophy visited Canberra to see 1944/45 winner Don Erickson

Besides the BBB we have a jam packed calendar comprising:

  • 100m Freestyle handicap, including Week 1 of the 6 week special event series:
    • Under 10’s Molly Wark and Les Henry 100m Freestyle, and
    • 35 and Over Men’s and Women’s 100m Freestyle
  • 50m Breaststroke
  • 400m Freestyle

30m and 20m races will be held, as usual, for younger swimmers and those who don’t want to compete in the 100m and 50m races as will the 4 x 30m and 4 x 20m distance events. The 200m freestyle will also be held for those who haven’t yet qualified for the 400m event.

Congratulations to the Hayden Howard
