City of Cambridge Swimming Club held their 2nd Inaugural Open Meet at Cambridge Parkside Pools. Ipswich Swimming Club members recorded a string of good results, many achieving Personal Best times.

Repeating the performance of last year Ipswich won the Top visiting Club Trophy by a staggering 185 points. (1st Ipswich 277 points, 2nd Peterborough 92 points.) Ipswich swimmers Alice Calver and Matthew Vinter won Top Girl and Top Boy Awards in their age group (Alice 14/15 Year category, and Matthew 12/13 Year Category). Many of the others were runners up in their age group.

It was a very long and exhausting day for quite a few swimmers as they were competing in all five events but still managed to achieve Personal Best times in their last race of the day. Well Done!

It was great to see Ian Sharpe, a member of the Great Britain Paralympics Team, competing and giving out the awards. He also brought along with him his Olympic Medals for everyone to see.

Karen Pickering and Ipswich Senior Coach Dave Champion have been selected to represent Great Britain in the World Championships held in Japan. We wish Karen all the very best and good luck.
