MARLINS IN MWANZA
The trip to Mwanza last weekend was a great success and yet again our swim squad the FK Blue Marlins took the gala by storm! Between them, the 12 swimmers won 15 bronze medals, 8 silvers and 7 golds, including Dimitri, Daniel, Andrea and Michael who each won a medal for the first time.
Linnet was 2nd runner-up and William won the trophy in their age groups. Overall we came fourth out of 11 teams. It was a wonderful achievement and a very enjoyable event. Thanks to coaches, parents and everyone who supported our swimmers especially Mr Ali who endured a 19-hour bus trip to be there!!
