Harwich Claim Essex Mini League Victory
19 May 2026
Harwich, Dovercourt and Parkeston Swimming Club delivered an outstanding all-round team performance at the latest Essex Mini League gala, finishing first overall with 166 points ahead of Halstead and Colchester. The result was made even more impressive by the number of younger swimmers making their Mini League debuts, with many of the club’s Under-10 swimmers competing in the event for the first time and rising brilliantly to the occasion. The support shown by the older swimmers towards their younger teammates created a fantastic atmosphere around the pool, with experienced swimmers helping encourage and guide the club’s newest competitors through the gala.
