Wednesday 2nd March saw the return of the Hyndburn Swimming Gala. It was fantastic to host the event at Hyndburn Leisure Centre after a year off as Belthorn, Baxenden, St Bartholomew’s, St Mary’s Clayton, West End, Moor End, St Mary’s Oswaldtwistle and All Saints competed in all the traditional races. A great atmosphere and packed gallery added to the excitement and there were some spectacular performances including a few near misses on records which have stood for over 15 years!
The overall winner of the girls races was West End who also came first overall. St Bartholomew’s came out victorious overall in the boys races - congratulations to both and the competing schools! A massive thanks must go to Accrington Swimming Club for all their hard work running the event and timekeeping.
