Blog 936: Diddy League

Congratulations to Alex, Bob, Kaye and Ian for coaching a wonderful set of young swimmers, and to the swimmers themselves. The A team have made the final (which they didn't qualify for last year), in impressive style with 2 wins out of 2. Once again the swimmers in the B team outdid themselves, competing against other clubs' A teams, by gaining victories throughout the gala and never being too far behind in any race, and whilst showing great team spirit and determination. This shows we are doing the right things as a club and really beginning to get the strength in depth we need to produce National quality swimmers. Some people have congratulated me personally, and I thank them for it, however it is the above coaches that deserve the congratulations - I wouldn't want to take credit for another coach's work; lets not forget its Alex, Bob, Kaye and Ian who work with these swimmers day in day out. I only turn up now and then and see them at galas; so please pass on your congratulations to them and to the swimmers.

Keep up the great work Long Eaton - the future is bright, the future is Black and Orange!!!
