On Sunday the 28th May our friends from the Bulli Sea Lions gave us a visit to celebrate “25 Years” of competitive rivalry of the “Jimmy Johns” relay trophy. The relay consists of ten a side with supposedly the winner taking the spoils, something that we have never been given and always out done by yet another rule introduced on the day. But this Sunday we were actually given the trophy for a short time only having to hand it back to the next generation of youthful swimmers hopefully to be contested for another 25 years.

Who wins is insignificant, this is winter swimming at its best, friendly competition between two similar clubs.

The Bulli Sea Lions were wined and dined with seven delightful soups, salads, kransky, homemade rissoles and sausages, followed by mouth-watering desserts.

The Sea Lions generously contributed to our fundraising for CRAM Foundation. We look forward to our next visit.
