C H Beckett Round 2

Thursday, 19 November 2009 10:48

The second and final round of this years C H Beckett Trophy was held at the Great Yarmouth High School pool on the 16th of November.

It was most unfortunate that the team from Aylsham Vikings were unable to attend and defend their trophy but the teams from Norwich Swans and Long Stratton provided plenty of competition for the Great Yarmouth team.

For some swimmers it was their first gala and with a large number of spectators looking on they all coped very well.

Great Yarmouth held a slight lead in the points throughout the competition and emerged the overall winners but great credit must be given to all the swimmers from all the teams with the last race on the programme, the canon relay providing an outstanding, close and exciting race.
