🐝 Summer Sizzler–Club Performance 🐝

Well done to all of our swimmers who competed at the Summer Sizzler this weekend. We saw some brilliant achievements across the team, with outstanding swims, strong PBs and great progress throughout the meet.

There were plenty of smiles, dancing, cheering and support for each other, creating a fantastic atmosphere from start to finish.

Here are some words from our Head Coach Lee:
"To all swimmers, parents and officials from Wasps. I have never been as proud to be the Head Coach of a club as I was today. The swimming from our children was sensational and I cannot count the times I had to double take my stop watch, the start list and be stood there with Michelle saying OMG did you see that time!!!! The organisation of the meet was seamless and Lee on the announcing I have to say is second to nobody. What an amazing day, what a proud day and there is so much more to come. Im ecstatic!!! LEE HEAD COACH"

Thank you to all the clubs that joined us today at Summer Sizzler!

This one day Meet was something myself and a number of retired committee members fought for over a number of years and it's great to see how popular it has become now in its 3rd year!

Thank you to all of the volunteers and officials for making the day possible.

Well done to all the swimmers you were fantastic!

We hope to see you all again soon!!!

Lee and the Wigan SC committee 🙂
