Novice Gala Results 2013
The first addition of the novice gala results can be found by clicking the link :
Novice Gala 2013 - Results
Well done to all the swimmers in what for many was their first gala. We do hope they enjoyed the experience and have pleasure in showing off their medals.
Please note: It is a very hard decision for us to disqualify any child in the Novice Gala, but for things like a one handed touch on Breaststroke turns and finishes we don't really have a choice.
The swimmers have been taught to touch with two hands in their lessons and were also told plenty of times during the gala to touch with two hands.
Any other dq's will be for a faulty stroke or moving at the start.
KSC.
