The Mullumbimby Swim Club celebrated its club championships last Friday to cap off another successful year in which members qualified for state titles and the north coast regional development squad.
‘All swimmers have performed well this season winning medals and improving their personal best times,’ club secretary Tracey Morley said.
The squad consistently won medals and improved their personal best times competing at Swimming NSW carnivals held at Murwillumbah, Alstonville, Lismore and Coffs Harbour.
