City’s Young Swimmers Caught Speeding in Cardiff

IMG_1376

City of Oxford Swimming Club’s young swimmers were in top form at the Cardiff Invitational Meet. As a meet aimed at development level swimmers, the entry times allow swimmers with little or no experience the opportunity to compete in a long course, international standard pool. The meet awarded gold, silver and bronze medals as well as coveted “speeding tickets” for those swimmers who exceeded the upper time limits set for the meet and so swam too fast to be awarded a medal. City’s boys led the way with some exceptional performances. 9 year old Zane Khan sped his way to 3 speeding tickets and 2 gold medals and 10 year old Charles Pauling took 2 speeding tickets and 3 golds. Logan Bryan, 11, bagged 2 speeding tickets, 3 golds, 2 silvers and 1 bronze medal and team mate George Rudd, 12, won 2 speeding tickets, 2 gold and 2 silver medals. Henry Barlow, 13 years old, was awarded 3 speeding tickets, 2 gold and 1 bronze medals. 14 year old Chris Motha not only claimed 3 speeding tickets but also set a new meet best time for the 100m butterfly in 1.08.21 with Jack Bradley, also 14, taking 4 speeding tickets and 1 bronze medal. 15 year old James Oliver was also in record breaking form with a meet best time in the 50m breaststroke, 38.07, to bring his total speeding tickets to 2, with 2 gold medals.

 

City’s girls saw 9 year old Flo Barlow storm to 8 speeding tickets and 1 gold, with team mate Freya Little, also 9, taking 4 speeding tickets and a bronze medal. 8 year old Ella Joyce, in her first ever long course competition, won 2 speeding tickets, 2 gold and 1 silver medal and Elise Lawrence, 15, bagged 2 gold medals.

 

The final relay events were hotly contested between the invited clubs with the boys’, girls’ and mixed relay team scores combined to compete for the Dave Haller Cup. In spite of a long day’s racing, the young swimmers whipped into a frenzy of excitement as Oxford’s relay teams stormed to victory and captured the cup. The 8 x 50m freestyle boys A team were Joe Watkiss, Charles Pauling, Diego Bravo, Alex Lawrence, Henry Barlow, Jack Bradley, James Austin and Logan Bryan. The girls’ 8 x 50m freestyle A team consisted of Flo Barlow, Saskia Boys, Amy Orbell-Durrant, Hannah Austin, Dearbhla Reale Vargas, Ruth Harding Brown, Elise Lawrence, and Megan Peake. Finally the 4x50m mixed medley‎ A team were Katie Templeman, Ryan Bird, James Oliver, and Dearbhla Reale Vargas
