SWIM CLUB AWARDS

 

The Brooke Fretwell Memorial Pointscore Trophy
Top 10 swimmers will receive recognition. The Brooke Fretwell Memorial Point score Trophy will be awarded to the swimmer who finishes the season with the highest Point score. It will typically be won by a swimmer who strives to continually improve their skills and performance to consistently achieve improved results. This award exemplifies the spirit of always performing to the best of your ability and then finding a way to do it better next time, epitomised by Brooke herself. Brooke Fretwell, swimmer, club member and friend, lost her final battle with cancer at the age of 15 in the summer of 2014-2015. This award will forever ensure that Brooke’s connection with Ripples St Marys Swimming Club will live on, whilst encouraging club members to aspire to achieve their personal best.


The Maniah Betham Memorial Trophy
The Maniah Betham Memorial Trophy will be presented as a perpetual trophy to the male or female swimmer who finishes the 800m Freestyle Championship event in the fastest time. It will typically be won by a swimmer with an outstanding swimming ability in Maniah’s favourite event, the 800mFreestyle. Maniah Betham, swimmer, club member and friend, was taken too early by a heart condition at the tender age of 15 years in the Winter of 2014. The staging of this event and the presentation of this award not only honors the memory of a supremely talented athlete, but also encourages Ripples St Marys Swimming Club members to emulate the person Maniah Betham was; an unselfish kid who cared more about his friends than his own achievements.
