More results, coming in thick and fast now,
Great result here for Abigail and Melissa, really bodes well for their duet and solo chances, we have
6 Abigail Devanny 59.661
12 Melissa Knapton 57.667
24 Rebecca Richardson 54.151
30 Scarlett Kaye 51.853
41 Molly Hughes 49.472
43 Anggita Gunawan 48.965
46 Rosie Woodward 48.431
49 Alice Scholes 47.924
So we have Abigail lying in 4th place for the solo and hopefully pushing for a bronze, AND Melissa in 8th also certainly qualifies. Rebecca is in 12th position for solos. Not sure if she will qualify or not. The are 13 slots in the programme, but I think only the top eight are qualifying. more news to follow.

13 14 Years Figure scores
Hot off the press;
24 Megan Knight 53.186
25 Alice Dewhirst 53.000
31 Rachel Lee 51.750
32 Isabel Scholes 51.735
37 Georgia Swinhoe 50.905
39 Evelyn Pedley 50.806
41 Sian Boyle 50.060
So some good scores in some good competition but unfortunately we don't have any qualifying for the solo. Megan and Alice were 11th and 12th with Rachel 13th, and Georgia 14th in the pecking order, but I believe only the top 8 go through. Keep you posted if this changes. The programme has slots for 14 swimmers, so more news to follow.

15 16 17 Figure Results
First Results in are the Junior Figure scores.
Well done to Rosie and Jess who both finished in the top 16 which is a spectacular achievement in their first yer in the age group.
15. Rosie Barrington 59.015
16. Jessica Ranson 58.991
27. Ruth Shaaw 56.227
30. Ashleigh Rowland 55.082
35. Alice Wood 54.127
At this stage it's looking doubtful if any of them qualify for their solos as only the top 8 swimmers are eligible. Having said that, we don't know if all those eligible will swim, AS soon as I know for sure I'll post an updae.
next up,

City of Leeds Open Day - 28th November 2010
The City of Leeds are holding an open/exhibition day in the diving pit at the John Charles Aquatics Centre on 28th November 2010, from 2pm until 4.30pm.
On the final session prior to the NAGs, the club are offering an open invite to all parents, family and friends and all coaches in the region to see all 19 routines that the girls are entering to swim at the NAGs in Gloucester. This is to give the girls a dress rehearsal in front of an enthusiastic and supportive audience and give everyone the chance to see the routines who can not travel to Gloucester, and to wish them luck.
We want you to make as much noise as you can - and yes vuvuzelas are allowed !!!
There will be a small raffle on the day, so any donations will be welcome and the event will see the launch of the City of Leeds 2011 Calender, which is hot off the press.
The girls will be swimming the routines in full competition kit, with hair gelled, and we have managed to secure the services of a professional photographer to take photo's of the event that you can purchase on the day. Please be aware that if you purchase on the day, some of the proceeds go to the club, but you must buy these on the day. He does upload pictures to his website for purchase after the event as well.
The same poolside crew that will be present at Gloucester will be helping the girls prepare in the lunchtime prior to the session following the usual morning training session.
Please invite as many as you can and there is no admission fee, although you may get your collar felt for a raffle ticket or a synchro definition t-shirt. (My ambition is to get rid of these by 2012 !)
All members are invited to attend as are all our regional club coaches - so please spread the word.
Time is now confirmed and we recommend you get there for 2pm, to get a seat get your raffle ticket and calender before we sell out. We have 19 routines to get through and so the first routine will begin at 2.30pm.

We have a couple of spare items available for purchase if you want to immerse yourself in the team colours;
1 Medium Sized Hoodie (Silver Emblem Limited Edition style) - £10

These do go fast and we only order them once a year, so send an email to
to reserve one today.
We also do have a few (about 30) Synchro Definition t-shirts avaiilable, Only £5, all proceeds got to the club funds.
Make great Christmas pressies !
13-14 Team Changes
A small but quite significant change to the entrants list reported before is to the 13-14 Team.
As has been reported, the team had to rejig the routine on the morning of competition, but swam it superbly, finishing above Bristol to claim the Silver. It has been decided to keep the same format for Gloucester.
The team were Silver medalists at last years NAG's and so will be looking to go one better this year.
