Marlins place 7 swimmers on Canada Summer Games Team and win meet!
The Canada Games Team is comprised of 12 males and 12 females. We are delighted to announce that SEVEN of those swimmers named to the team come from the Mount Pearl Marlins, and to top it all off the Marlins won the top team award as well! Four years ago the Marlins had just three swimmers on the team, all of whom are no longer eligible for the games. More great news is that five of our seven swimmers qualified will still be eligible in four years time and we expect that at that time they will pursing medals. Six of the swimmers qualified from the Marlins are qualified for Age Group Nationals in Montreal this July. We hope to keep adding to the caliber of our team and have at least 5 more swimmers qualified next time around! Congratulations Darci T, Morgan L, Becca D, Lindsay D, Adam H, Gavin D, and Ryan A! Congratulations to our alternate Lesley Marie L.
Congratulations to our Age Group National Qualifiers
