Country kids march on Homebush
The weekend of 26 and 7 February saw SOPAC inundated with country swimmers from all over NSW, from as far away as Dubbo, Coffs Harbour and Griffith. Amongst the swimmers were 15 competitors from Glenbrook Swimming Club, who along with swimming, also took part in the traditional march-past of clubs. Among the swims included XX finalists, and some great personal bests. Congratulations to all those who spent the long two days at the pool, and also many thanks to the parents and friends of the Club who volunteered in time-keeping, marshalling, starting, judging and other important roles. Glenbrook Swimming Club was very well-represented as technical officials, a great credit to our in-house technical training program. Our best results were achieved in the two relay teams, men and women swimming both freestyle and medley relays. Great swims!
