LINCS LEAGUE - FINAL ROUND 2009

Congratulations to Lincoln Vulcans 'A' team who successfully defended their Lincs League title at Yarborough at the weekend. With 26 first places and 12 second spots from a total of 48 races, Vulcans 'A" displayed strong performances in every age group in an evening of great team swimming. The Lincs League Trophy has maintained a permanent spot in the Vulcans' Trophy Cabinet since 2003!

The nearest challenger, CASA's red team, were unable to mount a sustained challenge and the 12-year old girl's relay team brought the evening to a close with an emphatic victory in the 4x50m Medley. The strength of our under-12 swimmers (both girls and boys) bodes well for September when we look to win the JUNIOR LEAGUE trophy as well!

Some fantastic swims by members of the 'B' team almost sealed victory in the 'B' gala at North Kesteven, with victory denied in the final leg. Congratulations to all the swimmers at North Kesteven who produced a memorable evening's swimming and did tremendously well - especially considering the shortage of 14-year old boys which meant that many young swimmers had to step up to a higher level. Again we go from strength to strength and it is especially pleasing to see the Vulcans building not one but TWO successful swimming teams.
