100 x 100
Sunday April 30 saw the return of the popular Yarra Roughies 100 x 100m event at Fitzroy Pool. With a sellout field of 60 swimmers, the weather could not have been more glorious, if a little chilly at the start.
Congratulations to all swimmers for your achieving whatever goal you set yourselves for the event!

Lorne Pier to Pub Swim – 2023
It was fantastic to be back at Lorne this year after two cancelled events due to COVID. In stunning weather, a group of Roughies across various age groups enjoyed a fantastic day of swimming. Our sun shelter and pink Roughies flag enabled our members and friends to find us and gather for the day.
MSV Short Course Relay Championships – 2022
As one of the smallest Victorian masters clubs, we are in Division 4 (divisions based on membership). We came a very close second in our division, and beat a number of teams in higher divisions on points, placing 9th overall of 15 clubs.
From 18 races we had:
- 3 first places
- 6 second places
- 2 third places
- 0 DQs (Disqualification)
- 1 DNS (Did not start) – don’t ask – at least we learnt from it!
- 17 events (that is, all) swam faster than entry time.
Thank you to all who participated and also those who helped us fulfil our timekeeping obligation.
