PB Hat-Trick for Kate @Zonals
(Posted on Wednesday, 01 February 2012)
Kate Ridley travelled across to Somerset at the weekend to compete in this year’s Zonal meet which is a step-up from Regionals and just below Nationals. Kate competed in the 50m, 100m and 200m Freestyle and, with some extremely fast swimmers and national qualifiers along with swimmers going to the Olympic trials in a month’s time, Kate had her work cut out.
On the Saturday Kate competed in the 50m Free and managed a PB and also an improvement of placing up to 14th out of 22. The following day Kate had a very demanding day with the 100m and the 200m. In the 200m in the morning Kate managed a great PB and placed herself again higher up the starting order and finished 23rd out of 28. The last session of the day Kate competed in the 100m Free and was aiming for 100% PB success rate for the weekend. Again, Kate didn't disappoint and managed a fine swim with another PB and again improving her placing finishing 25th out of 34. All weekend Kate was swimming against girls a year older than her so, next year we will be looking for more swimmers to join us at this competition and also for Kate to improve her position. This puts Kate in great stead to achieve her national times and was absolutely deserved with all the hard work Kate has put in.
Well done Kate you are a real role model already at a young age.

Chris Bassi Gala
(Posted on Monday, 03 October 2011)
Saturday 24th September saw the Ojays travelling to St Johns Pool Tunbridge Wells for this gala hosted by RTW Monson. Competing teams were : Sevenoaks, Bromley, Gravesend and Northfleet and Monson’s.
The team made a sound start and after the first 12 events were lying in 3rd place pulling themselves up into joint second place with Monson’s after 24 events. Things got very exciting towards the end of the gala with the final event (men’s freestyle relay) providing a nail biting finale !
PB’s were gained by many swimmers and first places were gained by : Girls 15 & under freestyle team, Lily Snell 50m fly, Michael Jacobs 100m backstroke, Jack Dickerson 100m breaststroke, Anthony Wilson 50m Freestyle, David Johansen 100m Freestyle, George Walker 100m Breastroke, Girls 13 and under 50m freestyle relay team, Boys 13 and under 50m freestyle relay team, Girls 15 and under medley relay team.
Ojays finished in a very respectable 2nd place and of course the evening would not have been complete without the now traditional team cry of “give us an O………” !
Many congratulations to all swimmers – you put in a fantastic performance and should be very proud of yourselves.
