This year's House swimming gala took place on Tuesday, 22nd April, producing many good races with both fast swimming and tight finishes providing nail-biting entertainment for the audience on the balcony.

 

There were many top performances :

 

Adam Fry (Ma) - 50m back and breast

Hugh Jones (W) - IM and freestyle

Dominic Torr (W) - IM and 50m fly

Andrew Weston (Me) - IM and 2nd in the 50m fly

Chris Brown (Ma) IM and 50m freestyle

Andrew Wright (W) - IM and backstroke

Jorge Phenix-Coyne (Ma) - 50m freestyle and 2nd in the IM

Lewis Wiley (Me) - 50m breaststroke

Seb Smith (W) - IM and 25m butterfly (who also broke the school record in both these races)

 

 

The final event saw probably the best race of the night. The cannon (6 x 50m freestyle) was won by White's in the final record of the night as they beat their own record by nearly 3 seconds.

 

 

 

White's went on to win the gala with 139 points, with Cooper's in 2nd place, Maples' in 3rd and Mellers' in 4th.
