PTL squad earn first win of the season!

A big congratulations to all of the PTL squad who beat local rivals Dungannon last Saturday in what was an extremely exciting gala. The fact that only 18 points separated the teams after 55 events gives an idea of just how close things were. Our strongest event on the night turned out to be Backstroke where we came out ahead 89 points to 73 which on top of Medley Relay success put us in the driving seat for the rest of the night, however, Dungannon finished strongly by taking 5 out of the 8 Freestyle Relay events but this was not enough to alter the final result. Overall, it was a good performance but the Freestyle strokes will need to be better next time. Thanks to Dungannon who are currently without a home pool for playing their part in this opening gala of the new season. Final score: Portadown 582 Dungannon 564.
