Rotherham Metro’s Debbie Cocking capped off an amazing week at the Summer Nationals tonight by becoming the Womens 13/14 Years British Champion in the 50 metre backstroke. Debbie posted a PB in the heats to go into the final as fastest qualifier and improved on her time in the final which she led from the start to take gold.

Debbie’s time of 30.01 seconds in the final is also a Yorkshire record.

This followed on from a week of personal bests and club records and two great performances in the 50 Butterfly and 200 IM finals where Debbie agonisingly finished 4th on both occasions.

Congratulations Debbie on a fantastic achievement.
