3Feb: Edlington beat SASAn early season Dinsdale Div 2 crunch match between the two promotion hopefuls, saw Edlington beat the ever improving South Axholme Sharks by over 40 points. 9Feb: Men Miss Out at LeedsDespite winning heat 2 of the Junior/Senior Yorkshire champs mens freestyle team by a comfortable margin, our mens team (Kev, Dave Cuthbert, Michael Gartside, Alistair) just missed the medals; finishing 4th overall. Earlier in the morning, Kevin Nicholas and Alistair Davies just missed out on final places (1st and 2nd reserve) in the sprint Breast. Kev also made the 50 Fly final, taking 6th place. 10Feb: More Yorkshire FinalistsKev's form from day 1 continued in the 50 fc: 7th place. In a bizarre twist, former DARTES National Squad member, Sam Seddon (now Rotherham Metro), pulled out injured, allowing Alistair Davies (1st reserve) to join Kev in the final for 8th place. The mens medley team (Andy Butterfield, Alistair, Kev, Dave) managed 6th, with Kev taking on the mighty James Hickman (City of Leeds) on the fly leg. Congratulations to Leanne Stacey on her first ever top 8 Yorkshire finishes (8th in 50m & 200m Fc, 5th in 100m Fly). 17Feb: Sharks Bite their NailsThey were 2nd in their BML debut by just 3 points.

Today's second gala saw a repeat performance, but with the Kingfishers stretching their winning margin. 24Feb: Tough Battle in BML2Despite putting up a strong fight, Edlington couldn't quite keep on terms with the leaders. Rossington seem to be missing the spark which made them title challengers last year. 24Feb: Spa Set to Dominate BML3Spa are looking set for a quick return to division 2 after securing victory number 2 |
