​
Braden Holley (14) has come ahead in leaps in recent months continuing his streak of personal improvements. The highlight at these Country Championships was his break through the 30 second barrier in his 50m freestyle where he recorded a 29.85 in the 14 year old final. Both his 200m freestyle (2.29.16) and 400m freestyle (5.26.72) were also significant personal best performances. Braden has always been a strong backstroke swimmer and he was a finalist in the 14 years 50m event, finishing 7th in a 35.86. He also removed 8.78 seconds from his 200m backstroke (2.53.03) to finish 21st in the open event. Braden was a key performer in the 14 and under men’s 4 x 50m relay teams who took out bronze in both the freestyle and medley events. 

Our female Club Captain Adler Larwood (14) progressed though to 3 individual age group finals including the 50m backstroke (36.75 – 6th), 50m breastroke (41.94 – 6th) and 50m freestyle (30.78 – 6th).

​
Alice Bolenski (12) is proving to be a swimming powerhouse, creating a swag of new personal best performances at this event. Alice was thrilled to make age group finals in the 12 years 50m breastroke finishing 8th (42.41).

Alice has now achieved bronze status on the Swimming Australia Junior Excellence rankings and has qualified to swim 6 events at the SA Age Championships this coming March.
​
Mum and coach Nicol Wright took home a bundle of medals for her efforts in the 18 and over and open age categories. Nicol was the silver placed athlete in 3 events including both the open and 18 and over 50m backstroke (34.01) and 100m backstroke (1.16.40). Nicol also secured bronze medals in the 18 and over 100m freestyle (1.08.66) and 50m freestyle (30.13). 

​In a super tough age group Romey Larwood (12) pulled some cracker performances. Her 200m individual medley was her standout race placing 3rd in the 12 and unders with a 2.66 second personal best (2.53.35). Romey wiped off 11.3 seconds from her 100m butterfly to place 7th in the 12 / 13 age group (1.23.76) and snagged bronze in the 12 and under 200m freestyle (2.36.28).

She holds a Silver Junior Excellence ranking for the season and has qualified to swim a massive 12 individual events at the upcoming State Age Championships.

Teah Giles (15) has continued to demonstrate strong personal improvements in her racing. She commenced her individual program with a 7.38 second personal best in the 200 freestyle (2.42.19) and followed this up with personal bests in both the heats and finals of the 15 year old 50m breastroke to finish 5th (41.60). Teah progressed through to finals in the 100m breastroke, finishing 7th overall (1.30.03) and demonstrated her strength in this stroke with a 3.39 seconds personal best in the open 200m event to finish 12th (3.15.46).
​
Jade and Sharni Blacker (16) worked hard throughout the year to qualify for a swag of additional events at this year’s championships. Their dedication to maintaining training over the holiday period, whilst also being key members of the Cummins Vacswim teaching team was commendable. Sharni achieved personal bests in two of her individual events being the 200m individual medley (3.17.35) and the 100m freestyle (1.13.90), whilst Jade dropped time in her 100m freestyle to record a 1.17.52. The girls team spirit and support of their teammates was also highly valued. 

Lucy and Tori Siviour (14) have certainly put in the pool miles over this summer season and had some great personal improvements over the duration of the meet. Lucy was a country finalist in the 14 years 50m breastroke smashing her personal best by 2.20 seconds to finish 7th (42.97). She also had an exceptional 100m breastroke event to drop 4.29 seconds (1.34.59). Tori also dropped time in both the 50m breastroke (44.73) and 100m race (1.38.92) and swam under her previous bests in the 50m freestyle (33.17), 100m freestyle (1.13.61) and wiped off 5.54 seconds from her 400m freestyle to drop under 6 minutes (5.55.06). Both girls were part of age group medal winning relay teams.

Indigo Hood (11) continues her run of steady improvements and has now secured two state qualification standards (50m breastroke and 100m backstroke). Indigo was an 11 year old finalist in both the 50m backstroke (8th 45.32) and 100m event finishing 7th (1.34.73), as well as the 50m breastroke (7th 50.83) and 100m breastroke where she finished 8th (1.55.36). She also posted an excellent improvement in her 100m freestyle dropping 2.46 seconds (1.24.41). 

Bradley Wright (11) had a full program of racing and made frequent appearances in the 11 year age group finals. Bradley swam 6 individual finals medalling in bronze place for the 100m butterfly (2.02.24).

They secured the silver medal in both of these events.
​
Swimming in the same age group, Harri Ware (11) had an excellent first experience of championship format racing. Harri recorded some huge personal best efforts at the meet and was also a top 8 finalist in each of the 4 individual races that he entered. Harri finished 7th in the 100m freestyle (1.23.14) as well as 8th in the 50m backstroke (46.35), 100m backstroke (1.40.07) and 50m freestyle (37.96).

​
Swimmers will recommence their full training load on Monday 30th of January in preparation for the State Age Long Course Championships in early March. A number of the team have also registered to participate in the Starlight Super Swim which sees them set a personal distance goal and fundraising target, raising money for the Starlight Foundation who support young people facing the challenge of childhood illness. 

Cracking along on Day 2 of the SA Short Course Championships and excellent drops in time from all our swimmers throughout the heats and finals sessions were recorded.

Tyrell Nemeth-Ford (11) grabbed a finals berth in the 100 Individual Medley (1.25.29 - 7th) 100 Backstroke (1.26.73 - 9th) and 50 Butterfly (37.15 - 10th) making it 5 finals from 5 swims so far. In a very strong age group, Romey swum an excellent 100m Individual Medley to produce a 7.64 second personal best of 1.23.70 (16th) and backed this up with an awesome PB in the 50 Butterfly of 36.56 (16th). Romey headed home to Port Lincoln with her program of events now complete. 

Toby Harris swam a great 100IM to progress through to the evening finals. He finished in overall 9th with a time of 1.17.46 in the finals. Personal best swims as well for Toby in the 100 Backstroke (1.19.78 - 11th) and 50m Butterfly (36.54 - 15th).

With 2 swims on Day 2, Beau Hood recorded personal bests in both races. A sneaky .58 in the 100m Individual Medley to finish in 1.21.57 (24th) and a cracker swim in the 100 Backstroke to drop 2.97 seconds (1.18.43 for 16th)..
​
Cohbin Oestmann produces the goods again with a 5 second PB on the 100 IM (1.14.41 - 15th) as well as a huge drop of 3.08 on his 100 Backstroke to finish 6th (1.09.50). Cohbin was right on PB for his 50 fly (+.02) 33.82. 

Day 3 - and a big morning session for our swimmers with the amazing achievement of 100% personal best times. That’s right - every race, every swimmer; their result was their best ever achievement.

Lucy Siviour (13) knocked off .72 over the 50m Breastroke for a 44.08 (23rd), whilst Tori Siviour (13) smashed her 50m Breastroke PB by 1.34 seconds for a 43.47 (21st). Rebecca Wood (15) progressed through to the age final of the 50m Breastroke finishing 9th (41.10) for an overall time improvement of 1.41. Teah Giles (14) posted a 41.36, a .57 improvement to finish 23rd. Almost cracking that top 20 now!

Toby Harris (12) narrowly missed a final in the 50m Breastroke to be first reserve (11th) with a personal best of 41.74 (-1.66). Beau Hood (13) continues to reap the rewards of his renewed investment in training with a 5.81 second drop on his 200 Backstroke to record a 2.46.09 (11th and first reserve for the final).

Tyrell smashed his 200 Freestyle PB out of the park with a 17 second drop to a 2.33.71 for 7th in the 11 year old final. He was first reserve for the 50m Breastroke (46.08) and swam a cracker 100m Butterfly for minus 8.82 from his PB over the heats and finals. Tyrell recorded a 1.27.75 to finish 7th. Hero effort right there.
​
Cohbin Oestmann (13) swam a brilliant 400IM to medal in 3rd place (12/13 boys). His 5.29.15 was a 16.58 second personal best performance! Seeded as first South Australian after his heat swim in the 200 Backstroke (2.31.72) Cohbin unfortunately had a big slip on his start in the final and was disqualified. His time prior to DQ was a 2.28 and is a great indicator that National Age Qualifying is an achievable goal in this event moving forward. Cohbin picked himself up, put the disappointment behind him and PBed in the final of the 100 Butterfly, finishing 9th in 1.13.68 (-1.45). His morning heat swim in the 200 Freestyle was also a great improvement on his best, dropping 4.59 seconds for a 2.20.40 (13th). 

Day 4 action sealed the deal on an awesome meet for West Coast swimmers. 

Rebecca Wood (15) swam her way into the finals of the 100m Breastroke with a 3.33 second personal best effort of 1.29.36 in the heats. She finished in overall 10th, adding just over a second in the finals. With a little more practice at working the splits and pacing on this race, I’m sure there are plenty more PB’s to come!

Tori Siviour (13) recorded a huge drop of 3.87 seconds in her 100 Breastroke to finish in 21st position (1.35.32). Lucy Siviour also dropped a similar fraction of time to finish just behind her in 22nd (1.35.91). Excellent racing from the twins!

Teah Giles (14) was smack on personal best in her 100m Breastroke race recording a 1.29.53. Going into the meet she had only just set a new PB of 1.29.33 on the 19th of June - less than a month ago. Placing her in 17th position at this meet, it’s certainly achievable that Teah could see herself make a state final in the future. Teah is just about to add a support program in strength and conditioning training that is part of all YMCA Youth Memberships to her weekly training load. Just love seeing how much Teah enjoys her sport!

Toby Harris (12) commenced the morning session with renewed determination and focus having narrowly missed a final on the 50m Breastroke. He made sure the 100m event had his name all over it and hit his previous PB out of the park dropping 4.31 in the heats to record a 1.29.50, putting him ranked 8th going into the final. Toby dropped more time in the final for a 1.28.54. He jumped up two places to finish 6th, with 5th place only .1 of a second in front. Toby’s work off the blocks has improved remarkably and is  just magic to watch. This explosiveness off the block saw him drop 1.85 seconds to record 31.93 for 18th on his 50m Freestyle.

Beau Hood (13) was super pumped for his last event the 50m Freestyle. After some impressive work in pacing before the race, a new personal best was ripe for picking! Beau executed his race extremely well, dropping to 30.36 seconds and placing 18th. So close now to cracking that first 29! Beau has PBed all five of his races at these championships and certainly has a very exciting summer season in his sights!

Tyrell (11) lifted again for the final session. His first experience of managing competition fatigue over 4 days of racing has taught him lots about the importance of sleep and rest between sessions. Tyrell grabbed a 3 second personal best in the heats of the 200 Individual Medley for a 3.04.70. Another finals spot and Tyrell made the most of the opportunity, smashing another 3 seconds off for a 3.01.08 (6th). Rallying for the 50m Freestyle, Tyrell dropped more time for a 31.95 and backed this up with a 32.01 in the final to hold on to his 6th place. Incredible effort and team spirit over these championships and Tyrell was our teams highest point scorer with 33 points.

Cohbin Oestmann (13) finished his States campaign on a high with new personal bests in all three of his Day 4 events. Highlight of the day was cracking the 30 second barrier on his 50m Freestyle with an awesome heat swim of 29.67. We have had lots of near misses in training when trialling this race and as a coach it was fantastic to see Cohbin achieve something he has worked hard towards. Magic swims in both the 100m Breastroke heats (dropping over 4 seconds for 1.24.57) and 200m Individual Medley preliminaries (dropping 3 seconds for a 2.36.59). Finals were marginally slower, but after a packed program the day prior, he held time well in the 100m Breastroke for 7th and 9th in the 200 Individual Medley. Tracking Cohbin’s progress against the Gold JX (Junior Excellence) standards there are some clear opportunities for him to grab that gold standard.

Swimming Australia’s Junior Excellence Standards are a great way to establish age and gender appropriate goals and track personal performance using an age progressed swimming model.

Thanks to all of the swimmers supporters; whether they be parents, grandparents, friends, coaches, competitors or team mates. All of the work concentrating your energies on the personal growth of young people through sport is just such a great atmosphere to be a part of.
​
Great job team - your results are a celebration of your hard work and dedication to your training programs.

In her 100m freestyle race Alinta moved from a ranking of 28th through to 16th with a .17 second personal best (1.01.27). This time was just .35 of a second away from a finals berth in this event.

In her final event, the 50m freestyle, Alinta secured a trifecta of personal best efforts reducing her time by .25 seconds to improve her ranking from 46th through to 33rd. She recorded a lightening fast time of 28.35 seconds in this event.

Based upon this year’s published qualifying times, Alinta has already secured the 14 year old standard in these three events and it’s looking like competing at a National level will be a regular fixture on her competition schedule. Alinta’s dedication, application to her training programs and self-discipline have been exceptional. West Coast Swimming Club would also like to extend our thanks to coaches Grant Muller and Rian Pate from Immanuel Piranhas who were available on pool deck to encourage and support Alinta throughout the competition. ​
