2009 Club Championship Dance (and Trophy Nominations)

Fun was had by all at the Club Championship Dance in January. As always, a number of trophies were presented. Every year swimmers are nominated for two trophies:
Davy Combe Trophy This is awarded to a swimmer in one of the older groups including Junior Masters, who trains very well and puts a great deal of effort into swims at competitions etc. but does not often achieve recognition with medals etc. (Lower squads still have time to peak as they are younger, and through time can pull through with training).
Nominees:
Gold Squad – ErinAnderson and Vicky Mcfarlane
Silver Squad- Helen Cassidy,
Junior Masters- Shaunna Anderson.
It was agreed it should be awarded jointly to Shaunna and Erin Anderson.

Midlothian Cup Awarded to a talented swimmer doing really well at training and achieving great results at competitions.
Nominees:
Gold Squad- Chris Kerr and Jo Pettitt,
Silver squad -Thomas Dryden who has broken 5 records,
Bronze Squad- Beth Denholm who is super determined and competitive.
It was agreed the trophy should be awarded to Jo Pettitt.

2008 Championship Winners

VFR Ubach Palenberg – Midlothian SC Exchange

Midlothian Swimming Club has had an ongoing exchange with VFR Ubach Palenberg for over 20 years. During this time many friendships have been established. For many of the older swimmers, the German exchange is one of the highlights of the year, a chance to see some familiar faces!

Midjets Gala

This took place on Sunday 14/12 at Dalkeith campus.  The final team results were as follows:

Winners – White team captained by Callum (taking advantage of some dodgy t-shirt practices…..)

Second -Blue, captained by Vicky

Third -Red, captained by Rachel

Last, but savouring every event where they didn’t come last – Yellow, captained by Laura who did a splendid solo exhibition swim at the end as a special prize (or was it just her Mum’s miscounting….!?)
