Bedford Modern School swimmer Adam Ingledew storms to victory

Competing for the first time in 2010 at the Burns Meet in Sheffield, Bedford Modern School Year 12 student, Adam Ingledew took convincing wins in his age group (Males 15/16yrs) in 50m, 100m and 200m Freestyle, together with a 4th place in 100m Butterfly – all in personal best times.

In addition Adam’s 100m Freestyle time was a qualifying time for the British Championships and Commonwealth Trials to be held at the end of March.

The Burns Meet was held at Ponds Forge Pool, Sheffield and took place over the weekend of Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st January. The event was a preparation meet for the Commonwealth Trials.

“Last weekend’s result was a big confidence boost and I am looking forward to swimming even faster in March at the British Championships and Commonwealth Trials,” said Adam.
