February was Championship month in Quebec and our regional clubs swam proudly at meets throughout the province.
The weekend of February 10-12 was P1 Festival weekend in the province. At CAMO two meets were run, Festivals 6 and 7. PCSC took the Festival 6 banner home with 1376 points, while BBF took second place with 978 points. Meanwhile at Festival 7, DDO was victorious with 1723 points. Festival d’Hiver 1 took place at the new Cote St-Luc Aquatic Centre where CSLA and CNSL hosted an exceptionally well-run competition. Congratulations to all the swimmers for their personal bests, medals and P2’s achieved that weekend!
During the weekend from February 16-19 National swimmers from across the province competed in the Eastern Canadian Championships. ANLSL was again well-represented with swimmers from many of our clubs. Special mention goes to PCSC who placed third among the top ten clubs in Eastern Canada with 837 points.
Later in the month, PCSC won the Age Group (P2) Championship banner for the competition held at the Université de Laval in Quebec City from February 24-26, with a whopping 1213 points. Our own DDO took second place in the overall standings. Swimmers from across our region swam personal bests, won medals and achieved National standards in several events. Congratulations to all!
We look forward to equally strong showings from our regions teams during the upcoming Team Championships this spring and at the Summer Meets.
