The countdown is on—just three more weeks until we wrap up another fantastic season of racing! But before we get there, we have some serious competition ahead this Saturday, featuring:
🏊 200m Championship Medley – A true test of endurance and skill!
🏊 50m Freestyle – Who’s the fastest sprinter in the pool?
🏊 50m Butterfly – Including the thrilling Fred Congdon 50m Butterfly (Handicap) Trophy Final!
The finalists for the Fred Congdon 50m Butterfly Handicap race are:
| ID | Name |
|---|---|
| 1739 | Hannah AITKEN |
| 1156 | Luke SELLARS |
| 1614 | Arden HARTLEY |
| 1894 | Kate BUTLER |
| 1491 | Daire HENDERSON |
For those looking for a lighter challenge, we’ll also have a shorter fun medley—because who said medleys have to be tough? We’ll also have 30M and 20M freestyle and butterfly events.
Battle on the Bay
A last reminder that the Battle on the Bay is this Sunday. The event is at Ashfield Pool from 1pm to 7pm.
We’ll publish an event list on TeamApp and programs will be available to purchase on the day.
If you’ve registered it’s important that you are there and ready to race. If you miss a race, we lose points and the chance to bring home the trophy!
