Team Norwood were incredible over the eight days of competition, finishing the championships with three gold, five silver and two bronze, plus many, many finalists and a huge number of PBs.

New records & sensational finishes

Huge congratulations to Harrison Biddell, who took more than 3 seconds off his entry time to win the GOLD in the 200 breast. In doing so, he also broke the state record, set way back in 1994! 🥇🎉

The final night was a fitting way to end the campaign, with Fergus McLachlan’s outstanding come-from-behind swim to win GOLD in the 200 back, dropping almost a full second off his PB.🥇🎉

Congratulations to our top 20 finishers

🔵 By our calculations, Norwood finished the meet on about 575 points, right on the cusp of the Top 10 in Australia (of the almost 200 clubs that scored at least one point) and as the highest-ranked South Australian club*! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Every swimmer who competed over the past few days played a part in that success.

🔴 A massive thank you to our wonderful Head Coach extraordinaire Shaun, as well as coaches Ed, Paul and Luke, for all your work getting our swimmers ready for this meet. Their success is a direct reflection of your dedication and commitment and the brilliant program at Norwood.

🔵 Thanks also to our wonderful, unflappable, always smiling team managers Scott Simpson and Andrew Bahr, who gave up so much time to ensure they were there for our swimmers and coaches.

🔴 And thanks to all our parents and other supporters for being there for our athletes. None of these swimmers could do this without you. GO NORWOOD. 💙❤️🏊‍♀️🏊🏻‍♂️🥇🥈🥉🏆 #gonorwood
