Moonraker Round 3 ~ from A to B

The final round of the Moonraker Winter League took place last weekend with an A team who looked almost certain to book their place in the A final, and the B team hoping to put in a performance to hold on to their current B final position.  Both teams were strengthened by several swimmers making 2009 debuts in the league, unable to swim the first two rounds due to long course open meet commitments.  The A team put in a strong show at the Link to win the gala which should guarantee them a place in the A final.   Meanwhile the B team, up against 6 other Wiltshire A teams at Salisbury held their own to finish a creditable fourth which should book them a place in the B final.

The Finals of the Moonraker Winter League are on Saturday 28th February.
