ASA SW Region Youth Championships 2008

A small team of Tewkesbury SC swimmers competed recently at the prestigious ASA South-West Region Youth Championships at Millfield. James Butler, William Gibney, Harriet Parker and James Partridge qualified and competed in spite of the heavy demands of GCSE and A Level examinations and, in the case of James Partridge, limited training because of injury .

Congratulations to William Gibney who made the finals of the Boys’ 15/16 age group 100m and 200m Breaststroke, finishing 7th in each. Full results can be found at:
