Okay now back to swimming

Tuesday.
A shot for Max to make the Championship for the 9-10 50 freestyle.
A good chance for him to make the 9-10 backstroke.
A long shot for Dominic to make the 9-10 butterfly.
A very long shot for him to make the 9-10 breaststroke.
A serious chance for them to medal in the freestyle relay - but only if Colin (better than both of them, shows up).
A chance for Maddie to eat snacks.
A clear opportunity for grown ups to be bitten by bugs.

Here is Dominic, setting out to try and follow his brother (one of only three 9 year olds to make the 50 free championship) into the meet on Saturday.
And the boy in the GB cap.... MADE IT!!!

Very proud too that Max is in the free and backstroke and Dominic is in the butterfly. He also won his breaststroke heat and took 2 secs off his time. Go Dom! And as the lovely Colin did show up in time, they came third in the Championship freestyle relay final. Did I mention that we are proud of them??
