Nelson Swimming Titles
The final events in the Nelson-Marlborough Centre of the New Zealand Swimming Association were run off at the Municipal Pool in Nelson. Nelson swimmers had a great day and the Nelson club the best of all. The club finished with 455 points. Seven records were broken and one was equalled. On these two pages are the new centre titleholders. Several won more than one title, but space limitations preclude us from recording them all.
