Middlesex County Meet 2025

Eight RNSC competitors completed 27 individual races plus a women's relay at the Middlesex County Masters competition held at Barnet Copthall.

Of the 12 clubs competing, RNSC finished 5th overall. The women were 4th and the men 7th overall.

As usual it was a well run and friendly event. Mike G received loud cheers from the crowd for his gold medal winning races. Next year Mike moves into the 90+ year age group, so expect even louder cheers!

Well done to everyone who took part!

Sorry, Karen and Mike are missing from the team photo!

Bracknell and Wokingham Masters Meet 2025

1/3/2025

Paul C was our only competitor at this meet. In Paul’s own words…

"A silver in the 100m at Bracknell. Time not great but OK, my 3rd fastest and I felt great. I had more in the tank but I was easily tracking the chap next to me who had posted 1.37 vs my best of 1.39 and was level at the final turn and I easily out sprinted him.
Entry time: 1:39.40 Result: 1:41.15 Silver! Splits: 49.07 + 52.08

A bronze in the 50m was good as there were 2 faster chaps and 3 of us within 1 second however one didn't show so it was between 2 of us. I went for it and got a personal best by 0.08!
Entry time: 44.29 Result: 44.21 Bronze!"

Well done Paul!

Royal Navy Masters 22nd Open Meet

23/2/2025

Two RNSC swimmers, Roy and Teresa, represented the club at the 22nd RN Masters Meet at Millfield School in Street, Somerset. Attendance at the meet was much higher than last year, providing some very tough competition for both swimmers in their respective age groups. In the end they managed to get one silver and two bronze medals and a lot of frustrating 4th places.

A special mention to Bill Letch of Totnes Swimming Club, swimming in the 85-89 age group who set 3 British records at the meet in the 50m Freestyle, 100m Freestyle and 50m Butterfly. He proved you are never too old to improve, he took over 6 seconds off his 50m Butterfly PB whilst setting his record!

Christine Thomas – 22 December 1964 to 10 November 2024

11/12/2024

We were saddened to learn that Christine passed away last month shortly before her 60th birthday – please see the Facebook message from the family below.

"Unfortunately, we write to share the heartbreaking news of Christine’s passing in the early hours of Sunday morning. She was at home and surrounded by family. Her decline over the past few weeks took us all by surprise. But that was Christine all over - determined to stay alive but then determined to go when she accepted it was time. She was the definition of resilience.
