The Boro swimmers, pictured above, came home with 21 first to third- place medals.

The Harrogate and District Swimming Club meet took place on Saturday and Sunday, October 25 and 26.

And as well as the top-ranking prizes, the club also included in their medal haul numerous others for fourth - eighth places in the 9/10-year-old age group.

The youngest Middlesbrough swimmer, nine-year-old Hollie Elliot, led the way with a fantastic haul of seven medals, six of which were gold.

Hollie set an excellent example and threw down the gauntlet to her older team-mates and even managed to come third in the Bagcats despite not swimming a sprint.

Close on her heels was 10-year-old Daniel Andrews winning two gold, three silver and one bronze medal.

Daniel also won the Bagcat competition.

Matthew Keenan, 11, won three medals, one in each colour while Jack Willis, 11, won two bronze. James Griffiths, 11, came away with a silver in 200 fly and Patrick Severn, 10, swam well to win bronze in 50 Breast.

For the girls, Beth Feeney, 13, won bronze in 200 fly and the other competing girls - Gabrielle Ahmed, 10, Emma Tweddell, 11, Eve Chinnock, 11, Rebecca Maude, 11, Brigid Knowles, 11, Frances Severn, 12, and Steph Hooper, 13, had excellent swims throughout the weekend with many new PBs being set.

Great swims and PBs also for the remaining boys - Joe Errington, 10, Sam Fisher, 10, James Keenan, 10, Nick Parkes, 11, Owen Waddington, 11, and Jack Baister, 11.
