Big well done today to our junior team competing in the Shrimps Relay gala 2023!

Our younger swimmers swam extremely well, against some tough competition, some competing for the first time.

After a few nerves and a couple of wobbles at the start all swimmers did everything that was asked of them and came away with big smiles all round .

Although the result wasn’t what we had hoped for it gave our young squad a taster of what’s to come in their next big milestone the Micro League .

To get our junior squad ready for the future events it is important that all swimmers make the most of the sessions available to them.  If you are unsure of what sessions are available to your child please ask their coach.

Josh was in Heat 1 of the 200m Backstroke. (Roughly 47 minutes into the video)

Well done Josh - its great to have a Halton Swimmer representing the club at the National Championships  

Another 1st place from our Micro League team. Lots of great individual swims!

Again they were a pleasure to have on poolside with great team spirit.

We are placing second overall on points after our final gala today and this is a fantastic result with such a young team.

Thanks again to our poolside team who ensured it all ran as smooth as possible.

Well done to all swimmers who have competed as part of our micro league team over the past few months 

On Saturday 9th July at Sale Water Park, Josh Howard-Hughes competed in the 5k open water competition not only winning the silver medal for Cheshire but also for the Region  meaning he's qualified for the National Open Water competition on 10th August!

Well done Josh    

What an amazing gala we hosted today at Kingsway Leisure Centre! Huge well done to our Swimmers who represented Halton Swim Club in the 3rd round of the Micro League Gala.

A brilliant 1st place with lots of fantastic swims.  Every swimmer gave their best and did their team and club proud!

They again stepped up in both their own age groups and the age groups above to cover for last minute changes to the team.

We were placing 2nd in points throughout the first half of the gala with only a few points between first and second place.  Our team took on the challenge and smashed their relay races to take us into a comfortable 1st place overall.

So proud of them all, they were a pleasure to have on poolside and a credit to their families and club! Huge well done to our younger swimmers who were competing in a gala for the very first time

Looking forward to the 4th and final leg of the micro league in two weeks time! 

Thank you to our committee members, poolside team and new poolside helpers who took on many roles, ensuring our home gala ran as smooth as possible.

Well done all!

There were also some new personal bests and great swimming across the board from our other swimmers; Lily Baxter, Daniel Houghton-Butler, Olivia Hyland, Evan Keeble, Louisa Mallouris, Eleanor Marsden, Fred Marsden, Edward Marsh, Elizabeth Marsh and Matthew Raley.

This was the first individual meet for some of the younger swimmers and also the first time a lot of them had swum long course and it was great to see some fantastic swimming. 

It great to see the Halton team spirit with everyone cheering each other on!

Well done to all involved!
