CDSSA Swimming Championships

On Tuesday, the Emanuel Swim Team competed at the Combined Districts Secondary Sports Association (CDSSA) Swimming Championships at Warringah Aquatic Centre. The team was comprised of forty of the School’s best swimmers who were selected following the Emanuel carnival. It was fantastic to see such dedicated swim squad attend this representative event, which included many students who were new to the representative pathway.

Gabriella Goodridge, Jade Berson, Jared Elbourne and Jacob Rose all had very busy programs, swimming in multiple events on the day, including a number of relays.

Gabriella swam a fantastic race in the 50m butterfly, not only winning the vent but also setting a new CDSSA record of 30.87s. Jared also had a successful day after competing in ten events he was once again awarded the CDSSA Age Champion prize.

Congratulations to all of the students who competed at the carnival and in particular to the twelve swimmers who have been selected to represent the CDSSA at the AICES Swimming Championships, which will be held on 30 March at Sydney Olympic Aquatic Centre.
