Coming up in Week 4: Backstroke and Medley Trophy Heats

Congratulations to our BBB finalists. We look forward to seeing you battle it out for the George Wheaton Trophy on Saturday the 27th of November 201.

This week we have two more chances to qualify for trophies, in more traditional races:

  • 100m Freestyle
  • 50m Backstroke (Heats for the Tom Brown 50m Backstroke Handicap Trophy), and finally
  • 200m Medley (Heats for the Five Dock Rotary 200m Medley Handicap Trophy)

Bring back your trophies

If you were lucky enough to win a trophy last season and you’ve still got it at home on the mantelpiece… please bring it back. We’re about to hit trophy season and need all trophies back so we can hand them out again.

See you on Saturday!

An historical note – the Erickson family

We’ve recently been contacted by former Club member Donald Erickson, who is now 91 and living in Canberra.

The Erickson family have a long connection with the Club, dating back to our very early years.

Don’s Grandfather, a Norwegian migrant, raised five sons and three daughters in Drummoyne. Four of the boys were Club members. Don’s uncle Albert Erickson was Club Captain circa 1915 and his father Bertie Erickson was Club Captain in 1918.

Don joined DASC in 1940 and won his first trophy in 1941 – in the 33 yard handicap.

Don went on to win the George Wheaton BBB Memorial Trophy in 1944-45 and his name is still on it!
