SE Norfolk Inter Club Gala – 03/Jun/2023

DOSC Junior Team

DOSC Senior Team

Diss Otters Swimming Club recently competed in the Norfolk Inter Team Competition held at the UEA Sportspark with over 40 swimmers taking part. The event was split into two competitions with the junior swimmers competing in the morning session and senior swimmers competing in the afternoon session.

There were 45 events on the day- 13 team relays and 32 individual events. Points were awarded for each race. The team with highest accumulative total would be the winners. The event was very fast paced, and the racing was extremely exciting.

Diss Otters swimmers performed well, and we saw a large number of personal bests across both competitions. Notable performances were Noah Blair in the 100 Frontcrawl and Tayla Goodswen in the 50m Frontcrawl who won their respective events. We also had some fantastic second places from the relay teams. Everyone from the amazing aquatic family at DOSC were truely delighted with all the swimmers for tackling the challenge head on. The junior team finished in fourth place and senior team finished in eight place. Overall, the event was a roaring success with all swimmers pushing themselves to new limits, obtaining new personal bests and most importantly having fun. Diss Otters certainly were the loudest club on the pool deck.

Head Coach Laura Goodswen “On behalf of all the DOSC coaches we want to congratulate the swimmers on their successes. We are proud of every swimmer who put in so much effort and work during training to get to this point and we are very excited to see what the future will bring to this amazing swimming club. A big thanks to the parents and all the other supporters who came to watch, you helped make the event extra special”.
