Dylan's winning race at McCullagh International

23/02/2026

What an incredible weekend at the Dave McCullagh International Meet! It was yet another big step forward in our club development. Not only we had Emily, Federica and Dylan qualified for this important international competition but we made finals and, even better, we won 4 medals (1 gold, 2 silvers and 1 bronze), courtesy of our fantastic Dylan who swam some incredible races.
Apart from Dylan's personal successes this has brought our club profile and status to a completely different level!
This is a testament of all the hard work we collectively put into our club development so far. So, thank you and well done to all the swimmers, parents, committee members and to my assistant coaches Katie, Megan, George and Rachel, without you all this wouldn't have been possible.

Well done to all our swimmers who competed in the last couple of weekends at the joint Leinster and Connacht Regional Championships, to the parents who supported them and who volunteered for the duties assigned to our club by the regions (Tom on top of everyone else)!

We had a great regional championship with excellent results, lots of PBs, qualifying times for the summer nationals, finals and, especially in Limerick last weekend, medals. Two individual silvers, two individual bronzes and our first relay medal at a regional level.

Cian, Adrian, Dylan and James showed a great sense of sportsmanship, camaraderie and friendship supporting each other in making up the team for the relay.

We have more competitions coming up, so keep up with the good work guys!

Another great friend and incredible sportsman has just left us! He was a true legend in Italian waterpolo circles (Olympic gold medal - Rome 1960) and in the general swimming community. I learnt to swim under his watchful eye, even if he wasn't my regular teacher, and then, many years later, I ended up working with him. He tried to get me as involved as possible in any form or shape in the aquatics. We had so many things in common and shared so many moments in the C.S.Aventino. I still remember him giving me an annual pass to watch the full season of the Lazio waterpolo championship when I was just a young man.
It was always a pleasure going back to the pool and having a chat with him.
R.I.P. Giancarlo. I am so sorry we never managed to have that beer together we said we would have next time I was in Rome. I'll think of you every time I am having a beer!
Whoever sees this post, I know the original one is in Italian but it would be worth checking if you can see a translated version to know more about this amazing guy!

Well done to all the swimmers who competed last weekend at the Leinster LC Championship. We had some excellent swims with 3 of our swimmers comfortably qualifying for the Summer Age Group Nationals and 3 others achieving consideration times for the same competition.
It’s great to get these times so early in the season!
Keep up with the good work guys!
