Flying Fred captured the Top Boy Trophy after smashing club records in the 100m backstroke and the 100m freestyle. There was double delight for the talented nine-year-old, who also scooped the most improved boy accolade.

There were also individual gold medals for Fred Goudie, Redi Qosja, Emily Hepden, Andrew Bartha, Ronnie Grubb, Holly Harbour, Lauren Spiers, Jake Usher, Sam Dixon, Kathleen Bartha and Harley Greer.
