Swimmers improve times

Representative swimmers from Woy Woy Swim Club have improved on their times after returning from Country Championships in Homebush, held on the weekend of February 26 and 27.

The Woy Woy group entered relay teams for both the under-12 male and under-12 female age groups and surpassed the club's expectations said Woy Woy Swim Club publicity officer Ms Sandra Wood.

Both teams entered the 4 x 50 freestyle relay with the boy's team reducing their time by two seconds and the girls by three seconds which moved them from fifth place, to third.

"The big improvers on day two were the boys, Ethan Dodds, Hayden Boyd, Jordan Boyd and Myles Bailey who knocked off nine seconds from their 4 x 50 Medley Relay which catapulted them into sixth position," said Ms Wood.

"The most outstanding individual performance for Woy Woy at this meet was Rachel Wood who brought home two individual bronze medals and five Top Ten Finalist Ribbons out of a hectic eight individual events plus the two relay events," said Ms Wood.

Other Top Ten Finalists were Tom MacParlane, Sienna Inglis, Myles Bailey, Ethan Dodds, Indigo Verhoevan, Hayden Boyd and Claire Gaffney.
