At the recent Thailand Short Course Swimming Championships 2016, held 1-3 October at Assumption University’s Aquatic Centre in Bangkok, the BISP Swim Academy from British International School, Phuket (BISP) finished third overall on points score, but first in average points score, with only 12 swimmers competing in just two days of a three day competition.
The championships were the selection trials for the Thai national team for the 13th FINA World Swimming Championships (25 m) being held 6-11 December in Windsor, Ontario.
Three BISP Swim Academy records (and personal bests) were broken at the meet, namely: Raine Gavino in the 200 Breaststroke with 2.32.36; Hendrik Faber in the 400 Freestyle with 3.59.41; and Kimiko Raheem in the 100 Backstroke with 1.02.47 – Kimiko has already been pre-selected for the World Short Course Championships by the Sri Lankan national team.
“I am happy with the way we performed up in Bangkok considering we’re still in pre-season training and not focusing on major weeks for another six weeks,†says BISP Swim Academy Head Coach Colin Braund. “This was more of a training meet for the guys to lift and swim personal best times, and assess where we’re at with our training. They showed a lot of professionalism in their attitude, and now should be looking to build on their performances.”
