Masters BPS Meet
Last Saturday saw our club host our 2nd Masters Meet. It was a great success again, with feedback from visiting officials very complimentary about how smoothly the meet ran and the family culture of our club.
Thank you to everyone who helped out, be they our junior swimmers, masters swimmers, parents and officials. Behind the scenes Alison spent weeks preparing the meet, so an extra big thank you to you Alison.
For the record Ryde won the point score, with Merrylands 2nd and Warringah 3rd.
