A squad of more than 15 Bridport swimmers recently qualified to compete at the Dorset Development Competition in Bournemouth and they certainly didn't disappoint coming home with a massive 32 personal best times and medals galore.
Daniel Hussey had a very successful weekend earning himself two gold, two silver and two bronze medals and Holly Symes won four gold and one silver medal; both swimmers also broke a club record each.
The winning streak didn't stop there, Tom Caplen, Lilly Schepp, Oscar Vercoe, Sam Westcott, Ruby Manning, Rohan Vercoe and Helena Ashby also added to the medal tally.
Special mention also goes to Tom Caplen, who was awarded most improved 100m freestyle swimmer at the event.
Bridport Barracudas' head coach, Sophie Dawe, said: "Our swimmers once again swam themselves proud competing in this Dorset-wide competition and their achievements really show how their hard work at training and determination is paying off. I'm really proud of every single one of them."
