In addition, there were several other KIS students taking part with their respective swim clubs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These meets are an excellent opportunity for students to gain valuable experience racing and push themselves to setting new personal best times. In every race, Stingrays were shaving seconds off their previous personal best results, which given the limited training since coming back after the summer break was a very encouraging sign.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mr. Bromley had the team well prepped for their races with his warm-ups and valuable coaching tips, as well as making sure that all swimmers had some personal targets to try and achieve during each of their races.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All the KIS swimmers, whether they were swimming as part of the Stingrays, or for other clubs, were fantastically supported by the whole team cheering them on to some excellent finishes and results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some students swam in as many as 10 races over the 2 days, testing their endurance and competitive spirit.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=&#8221;image_grid&#8221; images=&#8221;10821,10822,10823&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to the constant stream of new best times being recorded, we also saw some students achieve great results overall with Natalia, Abraham and Tony all placing in the top 10 for some of their events.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A mention also needs to go to Siwon and Abraham who in representing their respective clubs picked up multiple medals throughout the meet. Well done!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Swimming meets due to there nature can seem like long tiring affairs, but the energy stayed high right throughout the competition thanks to the wonderful KIS parent support.
