Head Coach Dave Hobbs was delighted for another Camden swimmer to gain a qualifying time for this years nationals, making the club's total 12, with several other swimmers knocking on the door.
Dave feels that Leo will swim inside the the 100m qualifying standard next time out.

There are some tired swimmers out there and we would expect to go quicker this weekend in the national league final".
