Raumati Masters swimmers have made waves at the New Zealand Masters Swimming Championships.
With a team of five dedicated swimmers, they competed fiercely over two days in Auckland’s AUT Millenium 50m pool, participating in individual events and club relays to earn points and vie for top honours in their respective age groups, all while aiming for the prestigious top club status.
The competition drew over 160 swimmers from across New Zealand and overseas spanning from 19 to 90 years young, whilst competing alongside Paris-bound Aquablacks Olympians Erika Fairweather, Caitlin Deans, Hazel Ouwehand, Kane Fellows, Carter Swift, Cameron Gray and Para Olympian Cameron Leslie.
Swimmers also had the opportunity to attend a race starts workshop held by Laura Quilter, 2014 Commonwealth Games swimmer.
Quilter set two Masters world records (30-34 years age group) over the weekend, breaking the 50m butterfly and 50m freestyle.
