Posted on June 6: Competition draws over 200 swimmers

More than 200 swimmers from 13 clubs across Ontario will converge on McMaster University tomorrow for the annual Trillium Synchronized Swimming Competition.

“This is the last big event of the season,” said Karen Worlidge, meet organizer for the Burlington Synchronized Swimming Club (BSSC), fresh off a string of meets that included the provincial, divisional and national championships in Victoria, B.C.

The BSSC, in conjunction with Synchro Ontario, will host teams from Kingston and Kawartha-Trent along with area teams from Toronto, Durham, Markham, Mississauga, Etobicoke, Newmarket, and Waterloo Region in the day-long event.

As the only synchronized swimming club in the area, the BSSC draws members from Burlington, Hamilton, Stoney Creek and Waterdown. The club offers competitive and recreational streams to keep children involved.

The BSSC wraps up the year with the club's annual Water Show on June 14 and 15 at Centennial Pool at Lord Elgin High School in Burlington.
