came a very close second place to Wrexham (118 points) with
Connah's Quay finishing with 66.

In the 3rd and final round of this years Deva League the team put in another good overall performance to finish
4th again on the night resulting in a 4th position overall. It
was an interesting experience for most of the swimmers in the

Congratulations to
Satellite (Macclesfield) who won the cup as Champions for 2010
and commiserations to 5th
place Wellington, relegated to the second division.
We
will be joined by either Northwich or Oswestry next year
depending on their fortunes on 20th November.
Well done to all the swimmers who took part in this years league

better next year.
