Katherine Kerr gained medals in all three of her Group D events, gold on the 3m springboard plus silver on 1m springboard and 5m platform.

Kerr was pushed hard by Elora Graham from Cambridge DC as she maintained her fantastic record of having medalled at every competition she has entered this year.

In the same event Katie Cripps gained two bronze medals on 1m springboard and 5m platform and came fourth from 3m where she has been learning new back 1.5 somersault and inward 1.5 somersault dives. Oliver Simpson finished fourth in both the 1m and 5m platform events and came eighth from 3m.

Grace Kouset claimed bronze at her first age group event in the Group C section on the 5m platform and finished fifth on both 1m and 3m springboard.
