Records galore as Games buzz captures swimmers

Signs are promising that the Channel Islands will once again enjoy a gold rush in the pool at the Island Games in Aland this summer.

In the first three sessions of this weekend’s main meeting of the Specsavers CI Championship, no fewer than 36 records were broken and many in convincing style.

Not unusually, several Games gold medallists were among those who set new marks with Ben Lowndes, Jonathon Le Noury and Jeremy Osborne among the Sarnians to excel at Beau Sejour.

Beau Sejour first in CI to gain ASA ‘quality mark’

THE Beau Sejour Swim School and the competitive squads of the Beau Sejour Barracudas have become the first organisation in the Channel Islands to gain the highly regarded Swim 21 accreditation.

Swim 21 is the ‘quality mark’ of the Amateur Swimming Association - the sport’s national governing body.

It recognises nationally and regionally the clubs that are committed to providing safe, effective and quality services for the benefit of their members.

It is a way of ensuring that every athlete - whatever their age or experience - belongs to a club that provides the best possible support and environment.
