Super Ed!!
Edward Ponsonby required a time of 2.17.00 in the 200m Freestyle to be accepted into World Class Potential for Triathlons, with the ultimate goal of competing in the 2012 Olympics. He had already reached his Athletics 1500m target and after a fabulous swim last sunday, smashed his 200m free time (2.15.29) and now awaits confirmation of a placement in the team!
Congratulations Ed!!

W.I.S.E INTERNATIONAL CHAMPS SCOTLAND
A very well done to Mike Oram who swam in the Junior Boys International Champs in Scotland. Mike won the 100 Fly representing England Schools in an amazing time of 59.34. Mike who is only 13yrs old tranced the swimmers from Scotland, Ireland and Wales. Fantastic swimming.
SOMERSET COUNTY CHAMPS MARCH 2006
18 Clubs across Somerset compete in these county championships. This year again as expected, Millfield have some outstanding swimmers, especially in the older age groups. Taunton Deane have great depth over all the ages and are giving Millfield a run for their money. With two particulary strong teams and really tough competition overall, our swimmers will have to pull out all the stops. But we are doing really well with some fab swims from all ages. I will list all top 8 placings and whether a National Qualifying time (N.Q.T.) or a District Qualifying time (D.Q.T) has been achieved.
The full results can be found on www.swim-somersetasa.co.uk .
Helpers for Somersets
I've been asked to make a plea for helpers for the upcoming Somerset Championships. There are vacancies working on the door, helping with drinks and also with car parking.The organisers would like volunteers for Saturday March 18th.
If you think you might be able to help, please contact Gill Baker.
Thanks.
