Herts Peanuts League Round 2 18-May-2013

Posted on 21-May-13 by verulamwebsite
Our younger swimmers competed in Round 2 of the Herts Peanuts League and came 2nd. Another fantastic result! This round was fiercely contested by all 6 competing clubs. But, with 9 firsts, 15 second places and 2 new club records from EMMA CLARKE (for 25m Fly) and ANA HILL LOPEZ-MENCHERO (for 25m back), Verulam put in a superb performance. Well done to Alex Noon, Freya Martin, Amy Price, Harvey Young, Sophie Hadfield and Rachel White who competed in the Peanuts League for the first time. Big thank you also to parents and our seniors swimmers who volunteered to host the event so smoothly.
The final round is on 15th June, so please pencil that day in your diary!
