Scouts Win District Swimming Competition

Six Scouts represented Ardsley at the District Swimming Gala on Saturday 7 November: Ronan, Emily, Ewan, Thomas, Wesley and Lawrie, and I'm very pleased announce that we were overall winners! We are lucky to have two very talented young swimmers in Ewan and Thomas, who won all their events, but they had excellent support from Ronan, Emily, Wesley and Lawrie. In this event it's the overall team score that decides the winner and every member of our team gave a hundred per cent. They can be very proud of their achievement. Unfortunately we just lost out in the relay, which would have made it a clean sweep, but our team was much younger than the team from Hoyland that beat us, which bodes well for coming years.

Well done everyone who took part. Next year we will be defending champions so I hope you'll turn out in force to try to retain the trophy.
