"V" for Victory

Brandon had another swimming competition yesterday - Neuchatel swimming club again La Chaux de Fonds. There were 26 kids in his group. The competition was done over 4 rounds - 4 lenghts in each round.. Each round was a different stroke to swim. The winning score was the sum of the times done for all of the rounds. Although Brandon was second after the 1st round, that motivated him to swim even faster after and finish the competition fist.

Swimming the back stroke.



After the competition he was dead tired. Can hardly keep those eyes open.

Swimming competition

Brandon had his first competition this week since he joined the "pre-competition" group. It was called Talent Cup. Diving off the starting blocks into the pool. (the picture is a little blurry, but that's only because he took off so fast!
They gave the podium places a flag to take home. When Brandon received his he looked at it kind of strangely as if to say "What am I going to do with this, I'd rather have a medal".

The times of everyone in his group.


His next competition is in 2 weeks. He is very much looking forward to it.

Grandpa start saving, Rio De Janeiro 2016 here we come!
