Centre to host Masters event

The Peninsula Leisure Centre will host the NSW Masters Swimming Short Course Championships on October 18 and 19.

Masters Swimming NSW country vice-president Mr Neil Keele said more than 300 entrants from across the state would be competing in the two-day event.

"A number of the swimmers attending have achieved world records recently," Mr Keele said.

"Lynette Stevenson from Blacktown City, Jenny Whitely from Ryde, Pam Hutchings from Seaside Pirates and Tony Goodwin from Manly have all achieved world records.

"Many other swimmers hold national records including Kathy Dobson from Blue Mountains Phoenix and Kate Lewis from Campbelltown Collegians, who is the youngest swimmer at this meet.

"The oldest swimmers competing are Hinda Lindfield from Hills at 89 years and Jack Mathieson from Shoalhaven Seahawks at 91 years.

"Jade Mifsud from Wyong, the 2007 Most Active Swimmer in NSW, and Val Lincoln from Gosford will also be swimming.

"Masters swimming is open to anyone aged 20 and above."

The Peninsula has its own club, the Ettalong Pelicans, which can be contacted on 4369 3194.
