Speedo League Final Positions

 

All the results are now in and Southwold has come 11th out of the 18 teams in Division 2. This means that we remain in Division 2 for the 2007 season.

As we suspected after the first gala, Blaenau Gwent were promoted to Division 1 along with Yeovil.

 

Well Done everyone!

Speedo League Round 1 

At an intensely competitive  gala in the Keynsham pool, Southwold faced stiff opposition in Round 1.  There were some outstanding swims from a number of our swimmers and solid performances from all the squad, despite some swimmers having to swim up to 7 times on the night,  in many cases against year groups older than they were!

In an exciting finish the final results were;

Blaenau Gwent - 238      Glamorgan Valleys - 213             Clevedon - 155

Newton Abbot - 154        Southwold - 146                          Bristol Central - 137

 

Well done to everyone who took part - We suspect that Blaenau Gwent and Glamorgan Valleys will be contesting for promotion this season so we should not be surprised that they fielded such strong teams. With a full squad available to us for the next round we should be able to significantly improve on this result.
