Last weekend (10-11 of November) Poseidons youth swimmers competed at the SUMSIM region competition. This year the region was split up in two (south and north) with one competition taking place in Ystad and the other in Ängelholm. SK Poseidon participated with 43 swimmers in Ystad with 11 more clubs from the south part of Skåne. All swimmers did a very good job with great improvements in the way they competed that resulted in a lot of new personal best times. We are looking forward to follow their development as the grow up since we believe thay have a great future ahead of them.
