24 regional swimmers traveled to Luxembourg this weekend to represent the South East in the Euro Meet 2024. The level of competition was again high with athletes such as Sarah Sojstrom, Chad Le Clos and David Popovici in attendance.
Our team consisted of a mix of both young and experienced athletes. Over the weekend 19 swimmers stepped up in a strong field to progress into finals or fastest heats in the distance events. This included 8 A finals and 18 B finals plus the relay events.
A finals included; Max Morgan, Mia Colyer, Harry Wynne-Jones, Imogen Myles, Denys Mialkovskyi and Oliver Pope.
In addition to the A finalists, B finals also featured; Chris Finch, Darcy Revitt, Can Tugcetin, Jessica Gable, Charlotte Cope and Ellen Bagley.
On the distance events we added George Pearson, Christian Duetoft and Grace Cummings to the final proceedings.
In total the team bought home 26 medals, including 3 Junior, 22 Youth and 1 senior medal in the final event of the meet, the mixed medley relay which saw 4 great swims from Mia Colyer, Max Morgan, Chris Finch and Darcy Revitt.
A big thank you goes the staff supporting the weekend.
