Namibia’s swimmers defied the winter chill, delivering a string of record-breaking performances at the second Bank Windhoek/NASFED Short Course Gala of the season, held from 19 to 20 June across three regions of the country.
The gala, which brought together swimmers from seven clubs, showcased the growing strength and depth of Namibian swimming, as athletes delivered impressive personal bests, fierce competition and new records in the pool.
Leading the charge was Aqua Swimming and Fitness Club’s star Jessica Humphrey, who enjoyed a remarkable weekend by breaking four records.
Humphrey set new marks in the girls’ 17 to 18 age group in the 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle and 400m freestyle events before capping off her outstanding performances by rewriting the Open Women’s 50m freestyle Namibian national record with a blistering time of 26.55 seconds.
