Beating the best in Europe

Posted on: 13th July 2024

Two BSSC Masters recently represented Team GB at the European Aquatics Masters Championships in Belgrade. Both Alyson Fordham (65-69 yrs) and Lizzie Bellinger (45-59 yrs) were on superb form across multiple events.

Lizzie, the current Aquatics GB record holder in the 100m Fly, was in action across four events and secured an impressive three Silver medals and one Bronze medal, setting Swim England East Region records in both the 200m and 400m Individual Medleys.

Alyson, the European Record holder in the 50m and 100m Freestyle, kicked off her campaign with a Silver in the 50m Breaststroke, and quickly followed that up with two superb Gold medals and European Masters Championship Records in the 50m and 100m Freestyle.

Congratulations to them both for their amazing and inspirational achievement.
