Feedback from Coach Dan Cross:
“Very proud of Thanet SC tonight, lots of swimmers out of age and plenty of PBs! Raced tough against some very good clubs, didn’t quite have the depth on the night but we will come back fighting strong next year!! Big thanks to the officials, supporters, coaches and swimmers!!”
