This season’s Pool Rescue State Championships were held on the weekend of the 16th and 17th July at the SA Aquatic Centre at Marion.
Semaphore had one of its largest groups of competitors ever (16 in total) and as a result we finished 4th on the overall leader board. Although we are still waiting for the official results/points to come through from SLSSA this is definitely a very impressive result!
