Whitedarts Junior Swimming team has been celebrating after winning Division Two of the Essex Speedo league.

The squad, which comprised of nine, 10, 11 and 12-year-old boy and girls, took place over three galas in March, April and June, won them all with exceptional performances in each.

The final round took place at Rochford Pool, in Essex, the competing teams of Hoddersdon, Harlow, Hitchin, Basildon, Rochford and Whitedarts.

At the half way stage, Whitedarts were second to Hitchin before pulling away to win by 12 points.

The overall performance of the team in the final round was exceptional, with 12 individual personal best times and all relay teams swimming fast than ever.

A special mention should go to the boys’ under-10 team of Arron Oaten, Tom Bunce Fredrick Mawhood and Ross Smith for wining all their individual races and relay events.

Whitedarts now moves to up top Division One for next season.
