2023 Winter Age Group Championships

Cameron Ware

Good Afternoon Rose Bowl Families,

A few weeks ago we competed at the 2023 Winter Age Group Championships in San Clemente, and the meet turned out to be a huge success! This year we saw a total of 140 swimmers competing for Rose Bowl, which is a 52% increase from the previous year! Very impressive numbers indeed! All of our athletes did an amazing job of stepping up for their races and giving their best effort, and the results speak for themselves. The full extent of personal bests can be seen below, but some notable highlights from the meet include a large number of finals heats composed of 60% (sometimes more) Rose Bose Bowl swimmers; a 100 fly swim off that ended with a Rose Bowl victory; and a brand new Southern California Swimming Record holder! It just goes to show how far our team has come in the last year, and how much hard work and dedication you all put into this endeavor. Keep it up!

One of the biggest highlights of this meet was seeing all of the fun that the swimmers had with each other outside of racing, and the positive environment that created. At any given point you could look around and see swimmers and coaches smiling and laughing together, just having a great time. While we train separately day to day, it’s always great to see the entire team come together as one cohesive unit to accomplish something great. It’s one of the things that makes this team so amazing!

Congratulations to every swimmer who competed at WAGs, a big thank you to all of the parents for volunteering and shuttling your swimmers, and congratulations to the coaches, for all of the amazing work you do!

GO ROSE BOWL!
