Sale was hot to go, when they had 12 swimmers head off to the Victorian Sprint Championships held at MSAC, Melbourne last weekend.
The weather was hot, the stands were full, the Sale swimmers were focused, as the swimmers were warming up for one very hot day of swimming.
Swimmers were focused and swam very well, coming home with some fantastic results.
Saturday saw 10 Sale swimmers take to the pool.
All swimmers prepared well leading up to the event.
Just to qualify is a huge achievement and something that the club was very proud of. Everyone of these swimmers represented Sale Swimming Club extremely well.
Swimmers included Adelaide, Ellie, Lily, Aliesha, Molly, Toby, Zayden and Riley, swimming in the morning sessions. Collectively these eight swimmers swam in a total of 17 events and a mixed relay event. Out of these 17 events, Sale came out of it with a great 13 personal best times. Almost every swimmer came home swimming at least one PB.
When swimming 50-metre swims, and already having already swam qualifying times, to achieve a PB is a huge achievement.
Session 2 had Sophie and Maddie swimming 50m freestyle events. Both swam very well and both swam PB times.
Sunday saw Max and Mackenzie swimming in the multi-class swim events.
Max swam well in all four strokes. Max showed some brilliant work from the start, having some of the fastest reaction recorded times from the start.
Mackenzie swam in the breaststroke. Mackenzie was very pleased swimming a huge PB. This resulted in Mackenzie bringing home a huge smile, excitement, and a bronze medal. Congratulations Mackenzie. The reaction when your name was announced was priceless.
This weekend, Sale Swimming Club has 17 swimmers heading are off to Wangaratta to complete in 2023 Victoria LC Country Championships.
