Harry Needs secured 4 more national qualifying times to add to those already achieved, most impressively in the 100m Back (1.00.87) and 50m Free (25.52). Harry has been rewarded for his hard work this season gaining 9 national qualifying times showing what an outstanding athlete he is. Harry also gained two bronze medals in the 50m Fly and 200m IM.
Team-mate Leo Jaggs who had already achieved his 100m Free national qualifying short course, smashed the long course qualifying time by half a second in 56.36. Leo also swam a respectable 2.05.29 in the 200m Free.
