HKSSF Swimming Championships

The Division 2 Championships recently took place at Victoria Park and the WIS team produced some excellent performances.  Day one was during half term which meant that some strong swimmers were not in HK and therefore could not take part.  This gave others an opportunity and everyone contributed to the WIS score.
The outstanding performances were from Aaron Khemlyani (Gold, Silver and Bronze), Ethan Grantham (Gold, Silver and Bronze) the Golden B Grade free style relay (Edward Li, Ernest Wong, Ethan and Tommaso Simone) and the A grade medley relay team who won a bronze medal (James Yau, Glen To, Huigh Wong and Aaron Khemlyani).  Other finalists include Ernest Wong, Glen To, Nicholas De Chazal. Many swimmers achieved personal bests and the team spirit was impressive.
The overall position was 7th and it gives targets to train towards. Swim training continues all year round: mornings 7-8 am and 3.20 – 4.30 pm after school daily.
