The brilliant facility that is the R A I Grant Centre was on full display as we kicked off proceedings with a fantastic showing in the 4 x 100 metre Medley Relay \u2013 the team of <strong>Will B<\/strong> (Back), <strong>Ethan C<\/strong> (Breast), <strong>Ethan N<\/strong> (Fly) and <strong>Noah M<\/strong> (Free) \u2013 putting up a formidable display to go with King\u2019s and Newington and coming 3rd place. The remaining events were a joy to watch, and whilst not point-scoring, the boys got in some valuable practice as we ramp up for GPS 2, 3, 4 and 5 in the weeks ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Congratulations to those swimmers who posted Personal Best\u2019s on the night. The highlight of the evening, however, was watching the Age Based Relays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New GPS Record! Special mention to the <strong>15 boys 4 x 50 metre Freestyle Relay Team <\/strong>of <strong>Will B<\/strong>, <strong>Hugo S<\/strong>, <strong>Jonty J<\/strong> and <strong>Noah M<\/strong>, who posted a new GPS record of 1:44.26, lowering the previous record, which was well into the 1:45s. In order to match this time of 1:44.26, you would need to swim 26.07 per 50 metres for four laps!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shore\u2019s swim team depth really shone through \u2013 we had 13 relays over the course of the evening, with Shore delivering gold on five occasions, coming in 2nd place four times, and 3rd place for two of these races. This means we finished on the podium 11 times across 13 relays \u2013 simply a remarkable team effort!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Special thanks to all the Swimming Centre staff and Senior students who volunteered on a Friday evening to assist in making the carnival run so smoothly \u2013 your efforts were most appreciated and noted by all in attendance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mr T O\u2019Keefe<\/strong><br>Head of Shore Swimming<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mr T Brandon-Cooper<\/strong><br>Assistant Coach<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This was the first time in a few years that Shore has hosted an AAGPS Swimming event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":25202,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","article_category":[24],"article_tag":[],"class_list":["post-16248","article","type-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","article_category-sport"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/shore-weekly-record\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/16248","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/shore-weekly-record\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/shore-weekly-record\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/shore-weekly-record\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16248"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/shore-weekly-record\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25202"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/shore-weekly-record\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16248"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"article_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/shore-weekly-record\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_category?post=16248"},{"taxonomy":"article_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/shore-weekly-record\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_tag?post=16248"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
