National qualifiers from Sedgefield 75 Swimming Club were Niall Coulthard and Liah Smith.
Niall’s week got off to an unbelievable start with a bronze medal in the 400 FS. His entry time was 4:14, he improved on this in the heats going 4:11. Niall went into the final in 5th place but his superbly timed swim took him to 3rd place in a time of 4:07 This was his first National Medal. Niall’s time of 55:12 in the 100 FS was a PB but not good enough to make the final in the 200 FS his entry time was 1:59 and he posted 1:58 in the heats. This meant he went to the final as second fastest qualifier but a slip on the wall on the last turn meant he finished 4th in a new best time of 1:57.
Every swim was a personal best, Niall competed in a way that brought great credit on himself and the club.
Leah competed in the Summer Championships swimming the 50 Breast Stroke.
