BEJSC Awards Evening


Swimming Section Awards for 2011/2012 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.

Select the tabs for the worthy winners this year and in previous years

Brudelin Trophy Contribution to the Club Claire Donlon

Claire has taken an active role in running our swimming club for many years and has spent the last four years as Chair Person where we have seen Claire drive the club forward, taking up numerous tasks on behalf of the club.
Her tireless efforts have extended to tasks like providing refreshments for meetings, booking pools, arranging coaches and swimmers kit to be available, ensuring that the Club BBQ ran smoothly and attending county executive meetings.
More recently Claire has been driving forward the new BBAT meet where we have collaborated with three other clubs to create a new competition where we have been able to provide our swimmers with the opportunity to set times for higher level competition including County Championships.
Having given four years as Chair, Claire has stood down from this role and we are all thankful and grateful for Claire's contribution to our swimming club and are pleased to honour her commitment with our Top Trophy for the year.

Williams Cup Most Improved Swimmer Kieran Pond

Through the season we see our swimmers training hard and improving their technique and performance as a result of this commitment to training. When we asked the coaches who they thought had improved the most this year, Kieran was a unanimous choice.
His commitment to training and hard work in training has seen Kieran improve greatly in his performances this year. Well done and keep up the good work.

Sutton Williams Cup Senior Endeavour Finn Bailey

As a senior swimmer, Finn has worked hard on his competitive performances and focussed on key areas of these performances in his training which have seen him set some very fine times this year.
Finn has also joined our coaching team, taking Blue Squad on a Tuesday evening as a newly qualified Level 1 Swimming Teacher.
Great work Finn, a well deserved award.

Rimmer Trophy Junior Endeavour Rachel Pearce

The Rimmer Family put this award forward to recognise a swimmer from the junior squads who shows the right attitude and application to their swimming with our club. Rachel shows both these attributes in abundance and always with a smile.
Rachel is happy to lead her lane, pulling along the other swimmers in her squad and helping the coaching team to run effective sets for the squad. Great work Rachel, thank you for your contribution.
