Round 2 of the Leicester Autumn League was held on Saturday 12th November 2016 and saw both A and B teams competing against each other alongside Leicester Penguins, Wellingborough B, Braunstone C, Shepshed and Daventry C.

The atmosphere at the pool was full of excitement and energy and Rushden A Team stole the lead with 362 points awarded on the night;  67 points above Leicester Penguins.  Rushden B Team put up a strong fight and came away in 5th position.

The Swimmer of the Night awards went to Olivia Beasant in the B Team for gallantly competing in 7 races on the night and Bertie Malsher in the A Team who confidently swam the freestyle leg of the 14&U boys relays achieving a pb in the process.  

Well done to both teams, keep up the good work.

This weekend will be the Final round of the Autumn League; Team A will be competing at Braunstone and Team B at Wigston.

Team A currently sit in second place in the Leicester District Swimming League Table for Autumn 2016, 12 points behind Nuneaton.   Good luck everybody you can do this, go out and give it your best shot!
