Swimmers Sylvie Marley and Caitlinn Comerford had a busy summer. Both girls swam at the Irish National Age Group Championships in July, swimming in individual and team events. Sylvie won an individual bronze medal in the U14 200 meter backcrawl and Caitlinn won an individual silver medal in the U14 1,500 meter frontcrawl. Both were part of the 4×100 Individual medley relay, and the team won a bronze medal, against tough opposition. Their achievements at Nationals and throughout the season saw them both achieve a place on the Leinster development programme for the 2024/2025 season. Well done girls!
