Normally at this time of the year, we are busy planning for our Annual Awards however this year has certainly been an usual year for us all with Covid-19 putting us all in lockdown and halting our swimming. We wanted to still acknowledge the successes of our swimmers and have decided to continue with the presentation of our awards, just in a different format. We can be encouraged by the attitude of our swimmers and coaches taking the lifting of restrictions in their stride and heading back to the pool with the upmost eagerness and dedication to the sport of swimming.

 

This year saw the introduction of the Inter Club Challenge with four local swimming clubs involved. We reached over 80 non-competitive swimmers through this challenge and are excited to present the winner of the Swimming Taranaki Inter Club Challenge Trophy for the first time! Our junior swimmers are the grassroots of our sport and we must continue to encourage them to participate in a competitive environment.

 

Our sport relies heavily on volunteers from timekeepers, officials, recorders and parents running our swimmers to and from the pool. In recognition of our volunteers and officials, we receive nominations from our clubs to award two trophies and it is not an easy task to pick just one person so we do thank each and everyone of you for your commitment to swimming in our region.

 

To our swimmers, we understand your disappointment of the cancellation of major events this year (including our Club Relay Champs!) however let this be a time to set your new goals and start working towards them. It takes hard work, dedication and commitment but will give so much reward when your goals are achieved. We can look back on our year of swimming and be proud of what each and everyone one of us has achieved and look forward to the new season ahead of us.

 

We will be sharing our award winners here over the next few days, congratulations to all our award winners.
