Swim England West Midlands Masters Championships, Coventry, 30 September 2023

Whilst, with some confidence, I can say we had 13 individual wins, this does not equate to Midlands champions as several of our swimmers were beaten by athletes from outside the region, and would have medalled as district champions.

Can’t be sure I can accurately report individual championship performance so I’ll highlight the Staffordshire County Record breakers (subject to ratification)

400 Free70+ Lionel Spittle6:33.45
65+ Martyn Finney6:41.78
45+ Ian Hicks4:51.78
50 Fly70+ Lionel Spittle0:51.79
200 IM45+ Ian Hicks2:35.02
200 Back45+ Ian Hicks2:32.09
100 Back80+ Roger Crannage2:30.92

Congratulations to all, particularly Ian who produced some excellent swims!

Our relay teams included all squad members, and came in 2nd and 3rd in their respective age groups.

Our 160+ teams:                                   
Medley = Leah, Justine, Martyn, Ian H
Freestyle = Leah, Jen, Martyn, Ian H set club record’s, as  it’s the first time we’ve managed to field a squad in this age group
