Open Water Championships

Posted on 10 Sep 2007 at 17:41 by Keith Barber

A festival weekend of Open Water Swimming saw the Regional Championships take place and the summer long Grand Prix series come to a nailbiting conclusion.

Nearly 200 swims were recorded over the course of the weekend showing that Open Water is booming within the Region.

Plans are already underway to repeat the "Festival" weekend in 2008 and run the season long Championship Series (as the Grand Prix will be known) next year and make it bigger and better.

Thanks must go to all the Officials and athletes who made the weekend such a resounding success.

Results for the Championships and final Grand Prix points tables can be found at
