Swimming Results – Freda Barnard Gala, Oudtshoorn

Three Union High School learners affiliated with the Destiny Swimming Academy – ๐—–๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ฒ ๐——๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜, ๐——๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐——๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ž๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐—ฆ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐˜๐˜ – took part in the 45th annual Freda Barnard Gala in Oudtshoorn from 1 to 4 October.

Thursday was beautifully warm, then came the pouring rain, icy winds and temperatures below 17ยฐC, before Sunday finally decided to send everyone home with some sunshine. Through it all, our three Union swimmers simply got on with the job – and produced some really exciting results along the way.

๐——๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐—น ๐——๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜ had a particularly good return to competition, swimming PB after PB. He won the 100m Backstroke in 1:14.92, taking a huge 7.26 seconds off his previous best; finished second in the 100m Breaststroke with another 5.21-second PB and took third in the 50m Backstroke, also in a new personal best.

He added further PBs in the 200m IM, 200m Breaststroke, 50m Butterfly and 100m Freestyle – and, best of all, qualified for SA Level 3 in every one of his individual events. Daniel also helped his team to second place in the 200m Freestyle Relay and fourth in the 200m Medley Relay.

๐—–๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ฒ ๐——๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜ clearly decided that if she was going back to racing, she might as well do it properly! She took a remarkable 11.46 seconds off her 100m Backstroke time and an enormous 18.50 seconds off her 200m IM, while also improving her 50m Backstroke by 2.89 seconds.

Catie also secured her SA Level 2 qualification, making it a very successful return to competition.

And for ๐—ž๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐—ฆ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐˜๐˜, this Freda Barnard Gala was an especially memorable one as it marked her very first gala as a registered SSA swimmer.

Tired legs, heavy packs and plenty of climbing – but also spectacular Karoo views, shared encouragement and the quiet satisfaction of discovering that you can do hard things.
