Sunday afternoon is for teams and Edinburgh Synchro was the first Scottish team in a long time (ever?) to be able to enter 12&under and 13,14,15 competitive teams. Our girls swam wonderfully and both teams were rewarded with a National gold medal for their efforts.

Edinburgh had two recreational combination teams in the Open event and Edinburgh A won the bronze medal, with 0.8 points between the top three teams.

Well done to everyone and thank you to those who came along to support the team.
