Kim Holmes and Matthew Sussmes took a combined total of 4 gold medals at the annual short course SE Region Masters swim competition at the K2 Leisure Centre in Crawley.
After an early departure from the Island – and missing much of the warm up – the pair both swam well against a very strong field of swimmers from all over the South East.
Kim won 2 golds in the 50m Breaststroke and Backstroke (35-39 year age group), and Matthew 2 Golds in the 50m Backstroke and 100m Freestyle and a silver in the 50m Freestyle ( 60 -64 year age group).
Both Kim and Mastthew are coaches at Ryde Swimming Club.
Their next competition is the 3 day National Championships at Sheffield’s Ponds Forge in October.
