In the Blackburn with Darwen Primary Schools competition I came 4th in the individual medley competition against strong opponents who also swim for Blackburn Centurions.   However, in the team medley events we got 3 golds for freestyle medley, medley and cannon.  We were all Y5 swimmers against Y6 swimmers as Westholme Y6 pupils were at PGL!

Colne friendly league gala - Pioneer came second with 57 points and Colne had 59.  We had some good young swimmers in our team, but just couldn't quite make it against Colne on this occasion.

Swimming in the Blackburn with Darwen Primary Schools competition tomorrow Friday, 23 March.  Should have been Year 6 pupils but they are at PGL so Year 5 are representing Westholme School.  Event is at Darwen Leisure Centre at 6.00 pm, tickets only.

Swimming in the friendly league gala against Colne tonight for Pioneer 79.  Hope we all do well.

I don't think we've been placed at the English Schools Swimming Competition.  Was very stiff competition from Merchant Taylors and Queens Chester.  Never mind always next year!

I've also been picked to swim for Westholme School at the English Primary Schools swimming competition at Everton Park on Friday, 16 March 2012.  Busy week for swimming this week.  It starts at 6.00 pm.  Hope Westholme get placed.

The Lancashire County champs that I did at the weekend - I didn't come last in my heat, but came last out of all the 10 year old swimmers.  Never mind at least I achieved a level 1 gala!

I'm swimming in the school gala next Thursday, 15 March.  Its against Stoneyhurst St Mary's Hall and is the William Magowan Cup.  Hope we do well.

Big day tomorrow.  I'm swimming in the Lancashire County Water Polo and Swimming Association, British Gas Age Group and Swimming Championships 2012.  I qualified for the 200 m butterfly.  Going to be some stiff competition I think.  So long as I beat my personal best (PB).
