It’s a breeze in Cardiff, for Lisa!

A very cold, damp and windy Cardiff turned into the perfect weekend for Tigersharks swimmers as they competed in the Exeter City Open Meet at the Cardiff International 50m Pool.

Lisa Cowley (12), pictured left, swam to a superb 1:05.39 and her first ever Regional QT and made it look so easy. She also closed in on her 200m & 400m FC times to complete a great weekend.

Polly Painter (9) continued to astound as she notched up another two 11 year old Regional times in the 200m FC (2:34) and 400m IM (6:12). She won every event she entered with relative ease.

Sophie Roberts (15) is now in touch with her 50m and 100m Backstroke National Times as she swam to three gold medals in the three backstroke events.

Rebecca Cook (13) produced another weekend of massive PB’s as she smashed her Breaststroke, Ind. Medley and Backstroke times. She is now starting to focus on her NQT’s for 2012. Her performance was emulated by Abbie Crook (10) as she continues to set new PB’s every time she swims, again in particular the Ind. Med events.

Emma Pearce (14) was in outstanding form in the Fly and Ind. Medley events and also produced some great times in the 200m & 400m FC.

Tivy Durrant & India Sharland (10) were both putting the other 10year olds through their paces as they produced great medal winning PB swims with Tivy improving on her current Regional times and India closing in fast on her times for 2012.

Abi Cook & Jasmin Poole (11) both continue to improve their times on swims only just performed weeks ago, both girls edging towards further Regional times for 2012.

Georgia Pearce (13) continues to set huge improvements on her Backstroke and FC events and Megan Campbell (12) was in great form to record huge personal best times at 800m & 400m FC.

Bethany Wakefield, Rebecca Maddocks, Amy Thomson and Emily Weston all set new markers as they swam great races all weekend.

Jake Hancock (14), Oliver Howitt (13) & Chris Chapman (15) were all on great form producing huge PB’s on times only set in November and December. Hancock and Chapman had particularly good swims in the FC events and Howitt in the Breaststroke events.

Alex Eburne, Daniel Jones and Scott Gunning of Wroughton ASC, all showed their strength throughout the weekend re-writing their personal best times. An outstanding weekend of swimming for all involved.
