Golden Flipper results for June are now posted! BC is still holding a strong lead in the overall points. There was a lot of movement in the Team Scores this month. Kelowna is catching up to Hyack in the SCM results and is only behind by 4 Points. Will Hyack be able to hold their lead or will Kelowna surpass them?
We are nearing the end of the challenge with only 2 months left. Keep working hard on your Butterfly skills and getting your final fly swims in for the season.
Last weekend, a new National Record was set at the Fraser & Island Divisonals. Laon Kim of Hyack Swim Club broke the short course 13-14 200m Individual Medley record. This is also a provincial record and Laon’s 6th provincial record this season. Congratulations Laon! This is a huge accomplishment.
Once all volunteer positions have been filled a limited number of spectators will be allowed (max 200 people). A specific section of the viewing area will be allocated for spectators with entry being managed by wrist bands (different colour each session).
Session-specific wristbands for up to 200 spectators will be handed out fifteen minutes prior to the start of each session at the southeast entrance of the UBC Aquatic Centre (not the main entrance). A maximum of 250 wristbands will be made available for each session to facilitate new entries should some spectators elect to leave the facility.
If spectators file out near the end of the sessions, there will be some extra wristbands for people who might want to watch the later events.
The Summer Divisional meets are hosted from June 24th to 26th. Thank you to our host clubs Spartans, Kelowna & Richmond. You can find more information about each divisional meet below:

Hosted by the Spartans Swim Club at the Chilliwack Landing Leisure Centre
May Results for the Golden Flipper Butter Fly Challenge are in! This past month we had lots of strong swims and competitive opportunities. There are only a few weeks left to get your butterfly swims in! If you are looking to challenge yourself before the end of this season, try swimming fly at a meet or put some extra work into your dolphin kick. BC is still holding a strong lead in the Golden Flipper but top overall club is still being held by the University of Calgary Swim Club. Let’s keep up the great work BC!
