The Dorado swim club will host the first swim meet since the Twenty-Third Goodwill Swim Meet took place last month. The Dorado Speed Swim Club Invitational Pentathlon is scheduled for 14th October and will be held at the National Aquatic Centre (NAC), Liliendaal.
The meet will see the swimmers battling for top honours for themselves and their clubs. The local teams expected to be represented are Dolphin Speed Swim Club, Orca Speed Swim Club, Sea- Otters Swim Club and the host club. Two teams from neighbouring Suriname are also expected to be in attendance.
The rules of the Pentathlon are that the participants must swim in all of five of the events in their respective age-group – the individual medley (IM), butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle events – in order to qualify for the individual high point’s trophy.
