Shore Swim Club Makes a Splash at Junior NSW Short Course Championships  

The recent Junior NSW Short Course Championships witnessed an incredible display of talent, and Shore Swimming Club was right in the thick of it.  

Our contingent of four young swimmers showcased their dedication and prowess, making us proud with their outstanding performances. Shore Swimming Club fielded two relay teams in the 4 x 50 metre Freestyle and 4 x 50 metre Medley relay events, with our team of Jonty Jagger, Archie Lawry, Alexander Freischmidt and Hugo Stewart, finishing in the top 10 for both events – 8th for the Freestyle relay and 9th for the Medley relay.  

 We had some great swims in the Individual Results, including: 

– Jonty Jagger – big program with no less than nine swims all up. Jonty finished 9th in the 400 metre Free, 5th in the 200 metre Back and 8th in the 100 metre Backstroke events, all in Personal Best times.  

– Archie Lawry – Archie had swims in the 100 metre Breast, 200 metre Breast and 50 metre Free, recording two personal best times along with some great swims in the relays.  

– Alexander Freischmidt – Alex had swims in the 100 metre Butterfly and 100 metre Freestyle, recording personal best times in both events as well as the relays.  

The long course season is just around the corner, and it promises new challenges, opportunities, and milestones to achieve.  

Thank you also to Shore Swimming’s Toby Brandon-Cooper (’22), who came out on Sunday to assist the boys with their events.  

See you at the pool!
