Encouraging start to 2011/12 Intertown season!
We finally made a start on the 2011/12 Intertown season with a gala at Romiley on Sunday 9th October. Thanks to all the parents who came to help and support and well done to all the swimmers. At the end of the Junior event the score was very close at 41.5 to Romiley and 37.5 to Marple - this was a great effort by the Junior team. Despite a lot of close races the Seniors fell behind and the final score was Romiley 90, Marple 68. However, there were a huge number of PBs. Special well done to Edward Spreckley and Jacob, who both knocked almost 2 seconds off their PBs to win their individual freestyle events; to the 13/14 girls (Caitlin, Corrine, Honor and Josephine) who won 3 of their 4 individual events and their freestyle relay. The 9/10 girls (Gina, Georgina, Lilli and Katelyn) and boys (Daniel Coupes, Leon, Jack Buchanan and Edward Spreckley) also won their freestyle relay events. So, overall, a great start to the season - well done everyone. Our next gala is at home on October 18th against Ashton. (Posted 11/10/2011)

Octopush enthralls Marple swimmers!
Well done to all Junior and Senior swimmers who took part in the OCTOPUSH (underwater hockey) session on Tuesday 30th August.  It was a unique opportunity for our swimmers to try another aquatic activity.
