SWIM Bournemouth added the 4x200m freestyle relay to their national age group programme with another silver-winning performance in the South West championships.

The team of Spencer Wilks, Jordan Young, Ben Wickens and Jack Simpkins split the Plymouth Leander A and B teams to claim second place at Millfield.

In the 14yrs final, Oscar Esposti defied the seedings to collect a bronze medal from an outside lane in 57.25.

Finn Trehane won a medal in his first regional championships, taking bronze in the 200m breaststroke in 3:24.60.
