The Swim England Open Water Age Group Championships took place on 31st July at Rother Valley Country Park.

Swimmers from the North West Region had qualified by finishing in the top three in their age group at the Joint Regional Open Water Championships in June at Salford Quays, Salford

The championships had swimmers from Swim England North West clubs taking part in age groups from 12 to 19+ with some great swims all around.  Swimmers in the 12, 13 and 14 years age groups were competed over 1.5K, with those in the 15 and 16 years competing over 3K and both the 17/18 and 19+ age groups tackling 5K.

We had 11 swimmers who finished in the top 15 and two swimmers just missing out on bronze in 4th place.  Well done to:
