Newton Abbot Club Championships are open to all swimming squad members.
There is no separate charge for entry.
They take place annually in the Autumn at Newton Abbot Leisure Centre.
The 2022 Medley Skins event was held on Friday 25th Feb. The selection for this event was based on the results of the 200m IM in the 2021 Club Championships. This year there were a total of 4 senior female and 4 senior male entrants; 6 junior male entrants and 5 female junior entrants. This event tests the swimmers' endurance and strategy!
Winners in the 4 categories were Rob Cacchione and Erin Throgmorton-Appleby (Senior) and Cody Cole and Gracie Stovin (Junior). All the competitiors swam extremely well and congratulations go to the winners!
Medley Skins - How it Works (Based on 6 swimmers starting)
Due to COVID-19 there were no Championships held in 2020. Also, due the pandemic, our swimmers lost a lot of pool time during 2020 and early 2021. Even when we were allowed back in the pool, training sessions were reduced, and competitions were rare. We would therefore like to congratulate the swimmers who managed to set new best times in the 2021 Championships held in Nov/Dec.
In the Women's 16 years and over age group, new best times were set by Emmie Parsons in the 50m Backstroke and Erin Throgmorton-Appleby in the 1500m Freestyle.
In the Girls' 11 year age group Evie Evans set new best times in both the 100m Butterfly and 200m IM.
In the Men's 1500m Freestyle, Jensen Healey set a new best time for 14-15 years.
Congratulations to Emmie, Erin, Evie and Jensen, and well done to all our swimmers who took part in the Championships!
