As many of you know the club was selected as finalist for two awards of the 2009 Leicester Mercury Sports Awards and last night some of us attended the presentation evening at The Walkers Stadium.

Disappointingly we didn't pick up an award however we certainly made an impression with the great support we received from the swimmers and parents who attended for the presentations and a huge well done and thank you to those people. (Some shown below!)



This was our first year in being nominated for an award and to be a finalist was a great achievement and testament to the hard work done by the club. I honestly believe though, we should have won at least one if not both the awards we were up for. Despite the disappointment we all had a great night and I'm sure the others all agree with me that I want to go next year, but more importantly I want see Hinckley Swimming Club go one better and get what it deserves.

We have a great team of teachers, coaches and other volunteers and a fantastic membership, if we continue to work together our centenary year will be even more successful and this time next year, Hinckley Swimming Club will be head line news in the Leicester Mercury Sports pages.
