Ethan A in Year 8 recently competed in the ASA Hampshire County Swimming Championships 2023 in Winchester. He qualified for five events and smashed his personal best times in every event. This was Ethan’s first time competing at county level and in a 50m pool. He competed in the 100m breaststroke (placed 16th), 200m backstroke (placed 9th), 50m breaststroke (placed 18th), 100m backstroke (placed 9th), 200m breaststroke (placed 10th).
Ethan competed over half term in another competition against other Hampshire clubs in Waterlooville and came away with one gold (50m back), three silver (200m IM, 50m breast and 200m back) and two bronze medals (200m breast and 50m Freestyle). All the training, even during school holidays is a huge commitment but is paying off.
