The Columbia Shuswap Selkirk swim club is coming off of an record-breaking season.

From the start of the season in September to Alberta Provincial Championships in early March, the team broke around 60 records this year.

In the 10-years-old and under group, Holly Scranton led the way by breaking 14 records while Lauren Tracy broke four.

McKenzie McKnight and Nicole Louw, in the age 11-12 group, combined to break 24 records over 12 categories this season. Meanwhile, Finn Skofteby set records in both the 11-12 and 13-14 boys age group. At the Alberta championships in Calgary, Skofteby brought home four gold, a silver, and two bronze.

At the North and Interior Divisional Championships in Kamloops from Feb. 23-25, the club sent 13 swimmers, more than double that of the year before, and placed sixth as a team. The 13 swimmers were McKnight, Skofteby, Nicole and Annabel Louw, Becca and Ben Perkins, Dane Bach, Marin Harwood, Shaya Brink, Brooke Eppel, Felix Leyenhorst, Clara Tracy and Lena Warden.

Bach, who was the team鈥檚 top point scorer at the divisional championships, is on the precipice of making the Swim BC provincial team, according to the club.

Leyenhorst medalled at the same event and improved his personal-best time in the 400m, 800m, and 1500m freestyle finals in Calgary.

Additionally, Catherine Currach is making the team proud as she鈥檚 also a member of the B.C. provincial team and Swim BC Para Team. At the Swim BC Provincial Championships, she won one gold and four silver medals. She then went on to finish in the top 10 in all her events at the Western National Championships in Winnipeg and posted a personal-best time in each race.

The team looks to continue the recent success in the 2024-25 season.
