The meet included mostly clubs from Fort St. John and Grand Prairie but also had some competitive swimmers come up from Calgary. According to head coach Steve Carson, the goal of the meet was to bring all of his swimmers to the event to show the Calgary clubs that there are competitive swimmers in the northern regions.

Alex Hedges broke her own 100 metre freestyle club record for the second meet in a row with a time of 58.86. Hedges won’t be attending the club’s next meet in Kamloops as she was invited to swim with Team B.C. at the Mel Zajac Invitational.

This was the final meet of the year for the club’s swimmers aged 12 and under. The club’s older swimmers will be competing in 2nd Annual TRU Wolfpack Invitational from June 1st-3rd before the championship season starts in the first week of July.
