English Schools Swimming Association

After a great deal of consideration and collating information from The Foreign & Commonwealth Office and other agencies, the ESSA have decided not to take part in The ISF Gymnasiade (World Schools Games).

Because of the recent problems in Turkey, at the moment we feel we cannot put the swimmers at any risk. Although it is regrettable for the swimmers the ESSA are investigating the possibility of staging an International in England in the near future.

The 14 yr Old Boys British and English 50m Free record broken at ESSA Secondary Relays in London.

Harry Rennolls (St Olave's School) swam a new British and English 50m LC record in the first leg of the ESSA Secondary Schools relays held at the LAC in November 2014. This has just recently been ratified by British Swimming and the ASA. All at ESSA would like to congratulate Harry on his achievement
