Our three DSE swimmers Lauren, James and Emma headed north to Sheffield last weekend to take part in the National Long Course Competition. Seventeen countries took part including Spain, Brazil, Iceland and India. The competition took place over three long days with heats early morning followed by late afternoon finals. Our swimmers found themselves lining up alongside Paralympic medal winners from all over the world and whilst medals where not expected when swimming against this level of competition all three came away with a string of long course PB’s, with both Lauren and Emma making it through to ‘B’ finals. It was certainly a proud moment to see our swimmers names and the Epping Forest District Swimming club name appeared on the massive leader board along side swimmers from across the globe.
Well done to all three swimmers!
