Hampshire County ASA http://www.hampshireswimming.org/ News about Hampshire County ASA Copyright Hampshire County ASA 2005 Sat, 19 May 2012 17:29:25 GMT webmaster@hampshireswimming.org Jan Alderman With great sadness I have to report the passing of Jan Alderman, wife of Alan, who was President of the association in 1998. Jan had been ill for some time and her death was not a surprise but came sooner than expected. Alan reported "She left us at 8.30pm on Monday evening sat on the sofa watching her soaps. It was all very peaceful and dignified."

Together with Alan, Jan was involved with diving in the county for many years. Sue and I were very grateful for the help she gave us in understanding diving when we first attended diving competitions.

Our prayers are with Jan, Alan and the Alderman family. Donations if desired to the Motor Neurone Disease Association

This reprsents an amazing achievement and is 2 places better than last year. Congratulations to the whole team and Emma the coach.

There was a succesful protest against the result of event 129. Although this reduced the overall number of points gained by Hampshire, it did not affect the final position.

The draft programme suggested that it would be difficult. Based on submitted times, the Hampshire team would accumulate 246 points, which would be good enough for 16th place and survival in Division 1.
 
However, the competition is being decided in the pool, not on paper.
 
Hampshire highlights:
 
Winners
Boys 12/13 100m Freestyle, Jamie Cunnigham (Rushmoor)
Boys 14/15 100m Freestyle, Miles Munro (Beau Sejour)
 
Second place
Girls 12/13 100m Breaststroke, Angharad Eburne (Rushmoor)

Boys 14/15 4x50m Medley Relay, (Oliver Jermy, Gionanni Guarino, John Slater, Miles Munro)
 
Third place
Boys 14/15 100m Breaststroke, Giovanni Guarini (Tigers)
 
In the final event, the 6x50m mixed freestyle relay, Hampshire swam their boys first and generated a large lead. The girls held on well to win their heat and finish 4th overall, which was enough for 10th place and an improvement over 2010. 
 
Emma, the coach, was diaspointed. She wanted 8th place and promised better next year.
 
Virtually everyone swam out of their skins. It was a privilege to watch as President
In 2010, Hampshire finished 12th in Division 1. Could they improve on that in 2011? The draft programme suggested that it would be difficult. Based on submitted times, the Hampshire team would accumulate 246 points, which would be good enough for 16th place and survival in Division 1.
