Leicester Diddy League Final (27/06/09)


Well done to ALL the kids who took part in the Leicester Diddy League Final held at Braunstone.

We came 5th on the night and 5th overall in the league which is exceptional, gaining a place in the league and a bit of revenge against Wellingboro for pipping us in the last round.

Our team achieved 12 pb's from the 24 individual swims and 12 relays faster than those of the previous two rounds.

Special mention goes to the nine year old girls team, Jess Hawksworth, Charly Neilson, Hannah Whitehead and Leah Roulstone ( along with Simone Greenfield ) for remaining nearly unbeaten with only one second place throughout the whole competition (Fantastic). Beth Lowe, Georgia Stirland , Georgia Petch and Mollie Wright - two relay wins tonight, in competition best times.
And to the boys 9yr relay team, Ryan Pigott, Ben Lickman, Greg Brown, Liam Colquhoun and Scott Lindley ( with Harry Jervis ) who had won all their events until tonight even though the freestyle relay was swam in a competion best tonight.
Also special mentions to Mollie Wright and Brydie Niblett - 2 pb's each tonight, and swimming his last gala for Kimberley, Alex Marsella - also 2 pb's.

Also a special word of praise for Ciara Albass-Martin, Cameron Greenfield, Greg Brown and Nathan Venn who only had one race tonight but contributed loads to the team effort.
