City of Ely took 42 swimmers to Newmarket for the Spring Meet 14th and 15th March 2026 and what a formidable team they proved to be winning Top Visiting Club in competition with teams from Stevenage, Cambridge, St Neots, Newmarket, Mildenhall, Bottisham, Royston, Leiston and Hertford
Competing in 281 events the swimmers achieved 181 PB’s which is a fantastic achievement which all swimmers taking part should be justifiably proud. Special mention should go to Charlotte Beardmore 11 PB,s , Will Clay 9, Layla Latimer and Isabella Beardmore 8, and Emily Daybell 7 PB,s.
Charlotte Beardmore and Annabelle Smith were joint top girl with Florence law coming in third top girl, a clean sweep . Not forgetting the boys where Josh Botes was second top boy. My congratulations go to them
Club records continue to fall with 3 new records being achieved by Florence Law 1 Cillian o’ Brien 1 and Zoe Thompson 1
