Nenagh Invitation – Gala Report

Askeaton Swimming Club had four representatives namely Faye Walsh, Ellie Gallagher, Lauren Dowling and Kevin O Connor.  Three of these swimmers were taking part in their first gala.   We also got a very special announcement as we had the youngest swimmer competing at the gala.  Our swimmers competed in 15 events with 5 gold medals won.   A fantastic cannon was swam, with all clubs attending the gala mixing for this event.   A brilliant day was had by all.    Well done Faye, Ellie, Lauren and Kevin.

Image

So the first in a series of #ThrowBackThursday posts. Every Thursday at 1800 we will post a picture and a story around it. For the first #TBT it had to be the oldest committee picture I could lay my hands on. The committee of 1971. The year Askeaton Swimming Club opened the outdoor heated Swimming Pool.

Enjoy.
