The weekend of the 12th and 13th February saw the start of the Notts A.S.A County Championships and some really great swimming from K.S.C with some of the swimmers knocking 10seconds plus off their personal best times.

Lauren Gill made the final of the 50m Backstroke and 100m Backstroke finishing 5th and 3rd respectively but achieved two golds for her age group, and two bronzes ( junior and senior champion ) and a silver( junior champion)

We also currently have 4 swimmers in the top ten of their age groups.

Matthew Shipley leads the 9yr old boys Rankings, Mollie Wright is 8th in the 12yr old girls and Jessie Henderson and Elise Yorston are both currently 9th in their respective age groups.

Well done to all for a great weekend.
