After dominating last year’s competition, coach Lindsy Tudor-Cole is hopeful of another good show this year.
“Obviously we won the gala last year, so we hope to do well.
“I mean, we have got new little ones competing for the first time in a National Sprint Gala, so they are very excited.”
Some of her top swimmers that made the team travelling to Bulawayo include Alexis Johnsen and Neema Bhulabhai.
