Lynx win the District Scout & Guide Swimming Gala


With the really good weather and the change to a Thursday evening brought Scouts from around the district to the annual Scout & Guide Swimming Gala held at Ware Lido.

Bobcats
 Lynx 

The evening had all the usual races and heats taking place for juniors and seniors in both freestyle, breaststroke and backstroke including relays as well as the time-honoured tradition of the hoop race for juniors and the undressing race for seniors (though both of our competing swimmers were juniors!)


We also entered 2 of our Leaders into the Leaders race at the end, gaining a respectable 2nd and 4th place. 


There was a free swim at the end just prior to the results being read out. Bobcats finished in 5th place overall, but beating Stanstead Abbotts by 3 points, Lynx were able to win the competition and get to take the silverware home.





  A brilliant and well-deserved achievement, massive congratulations to the team! Well done :D
