BEJSC Awards Evening


Swimming Section Awards for 2008/2009 Season

The Bourne End Sports Club Awards Evening is a great opportunity for us to see what is happening in the other sections of the Sports Club and where some of our swimmers are involved both in club and other section activities.

Within the swimming section this is our opportunity to award swimmers and parents who have contributed to the swimming section over the last year.

Here are the worthy recipients of these trophies this year:

Brudelin Trophy Contribution to the Club: Tina Rhymes

Tina has been involved with the swimming section for thirteen years and now that Darcy is leaving for university, Tina has stood down from running the Swim Shop for us. This was the last of many roles Tina carried out for us over this time and we are very grateful for her efforts in support of our swimmers and our club. Thank you Tina from all of us.

Williams Cup Most Improved Swimmer: Megan Lynch

We usually have swimmers joining us before they are 10 years old and we gradually improve their swimming over the months and years. With Megan, she joined the club as a 12 year old and as such did not benefit from those early years training. However, Megan works very hard in the water in every training session, listens well and as a result has improved her swimming in leaps and bounds over the last year. Well done Megan, keep up the good work.

Sutton Williams Cup Senior Endeavour Katy Elder

We ask our swimmers to try their hardest in training and in competition and expect no more than that. Katy has been with our club for many years and is now one of our senior swimmers. Her work ethic in the water is second to none, she works hard, always with a smile and accepts every challenge we put in front of her. A great example for the junior swimmers in our club.

Rimmer Trophy Junior Endeavour Mary-Anne Grego

Mary-Anne is one or our younger swimmers and is clearly talented. Since joining our swimming club, Mary-Anne rarely misses a session, trains hard in every session and demonstrates what we could all achieve with hard work and application. Thank you Mary-Anne for your efforts in training and competition with us, keep it up.
