Seventeen national records were broken at this year’s Fiji Age Group National after two days of competition with more expected today.
Swimming Fiji president Ben Rova said it was a testament to the dedication of swimmers around the nation despite progress for the better half of the year being halted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It has been a successful competition with some big time performances from the swimmers,” Rova said.
“Especially after we had the COVID-19, swimmers have gone all out in setting massive personal best times as well as smashing some national records.”
