That’s a wrap from Elise - and wow, what a rollercoaster you’ve taken us on. You and us have faced many lows but also celebrated so many highs. When you first came to me you were swimming a 1:15 for 100 backstroke, and now you’re down to 1:05. 2:45 down to 2:24 for 200 Backstroke & 35.65 to 31.63 in 50 Backstroke. You have an all round fantastic ability now with all your strokes aswell . What an incredible achievement.

You’ve grown so much, not just in performance but in attitude. You’ve been one of the most enthusiastic swimmers in training, and your work ethic is superb. This year has thrown plenty at you, just like it does for any 16/17 yr old, but you’ve come through stronger. To reach the finals in all three of your backstroke events at English Nationals is a true reflection of the effort you’ve put in.

And to top it off, coming away with a brilliant silver medal, one that was so close to gold, is a testament to everything above.

We couldn’t be prouder, and we truly cannot do any more for you. As you move on to bigger and better things, keep believing in yourself , you have everything you need to go even further.

We send you off with all our best wishes. Huge good luck, Elise, and we hope you’ll always look back on your time with us with fond memories.
