December 13-15 saw seventeen DSSC athletes attend the Richmond Rapids’ Fast Swim Classic 2019 in Richmond, BC. Over the course of this three-day event, many new personal bests were achieved, club records broken and nearly every athlete competed in a final swim (top 8 or 16 placings). Superstar athletes from this past weekend were Manraj Johal (11) from the Developmental Age Group who achieved 100% best times over the course of this weekend. 


“We definitely saw some solid swims this weekend due to the amount of effort in training our athletes had been putting in over these past four months,” says Head Coach Kurt Murphy.
