Two national records broken during Junior Swim Gala

Eighty-five young swimmers took to the pool on Saturday, May 21, for the first post-COVID GASA Annual Junior Swimming Gala. For most of the swimmers, this was their first taste of competition and every single one of them rose to the occasion.
The water boiled and our young swimmers cheered each other on from start to finish in an amazing atmosphere reminiscent to that of the Gibraltar Island Games in 1995.
Our young swimmers and spectators were also treated to two new National Records being set by 15-year-old Asia Kent in the 50m Breaststroke and 100m Individual Medley events with a time of 34.70 and 1:09.82 respectively.
The loudest cheers of the morning were for Lucy and Adam Stewart who won over everyone’s hearts with their sheer determination, strength, and love for all things swimming!
A huge congratulations to all the swimmers who took part in the gala and to their coaches for all the hard work which goes on throughout the year to get them there.
