A fan­tas­tic result for swim­mers who took part in the Junior Swim League 2025. After win­ning the White Rose leg of the com­pe­ti­tion and qual­i­fy­ing for the final our swim­mers came out the strongest and were crowned the Nation­al Junior League cham­pi­ons for the sev­enth time in a row. Leeds holds the record for the longest streak of wins in the com­pe­ti­tion since it start­ed in 1979. It cer­tain­ly was an excit­ing after­noon with lots of fast rac­ing and fun. The result was a recipe of great swim­ming and sup­port from the bal­cony. City of Leeds came out on top with 30 first place fin­ish­es. An excel­lent team effort WELL DONE!

A big thank you to all the sup­port­ers amongst oth­ers who pro­vid­ed all the hats and flags etc. Par­ents thank you for all the effort that went in to sup­port­ing the team you were all excel­lent you looked great and it real­ly helped moti­vate the swimmers.
