BASINGSTOKE Bluefins collected gold and silver medals at the Hampshire County Championships in the girls’ aged 10-12 relay category.

The relay team of Amelia Trist, Isla Haynes, Hayley Chui and Lucy Williams won the 200 metres freestyle relay, before Poppy Goffin replaced Williams for the 200m medley relay, where they came second.

The girls aged 13-14 team continued the good work with Julia Lebosse, Aemilia Rugman, Sophie Graham and Angel Worsnop claiming second in 200m medley relay.

Finlay Evans won the boys aged 15 1,500m freestyle and brother Alfie finished third in the boys aged 14 1,500m freestyle.

Daisy Moore picked up bronze in the girls aged 16-and-over 800m freestyle.

In the 14-and-under age group, the Bluefins carried on from their successful start to the championships with numerous personal bests.

Star of the show was undoubtedly 12-year-old Trist, who won six gold medals in total. She finished first in the 50m, 100m and 200m breaststroke and butterfly events as well as picking up bronze in the 200m individual medley.

Evans won gold in the 13-year-old boys 200m breaststroke and a silver in the 100m butterfly.

Rugman collected a silver in the 13-year-old girls 50m breaststroke, Lebosse also secured a silver in the 13-year-old girls 200m breaststroke and Sophie Graham completed a hat-trick of silvers in the 14-year-old girls butterfly.

Four Bluefins swimmers – Joseph Oavey, George Allen, Jamie Joice and Jessica Draper – took part in the South East Regional Disability Swimming Championships at the Quays, in Southampton.

All the swimmers managed personal bests in at least one of their races.

The first-ever Bluefins warm weather camp in Cyprus proved to be a great success for the 25 swimmers who took part along with five team staff.

The camp was based at the Coral Bay resort, in Paphos, which was the venue for the Great Britain holding camp ahead of the Athens 2004 Olympics.

There were two training sessions per day, each lasting two hours, and on average they completed between 6,000 and 7,000 metres per session.

This was quite a feat for the younger and less experienced members of the group, whose weekly totals are only about 3,500 metres.

The camp was a great success and it is now expected to become an annual event.
