Trin­i­ty Mas­ters Swim Club, is reg­is­ter­ing its club with the Am­a­teur Swim­ming As­so­ci­a­tion of T&T (ASATT), and has formed a new ex­ec­u­tive in an ef­fort to re­vi­talise Mas­ters swim­ming both lo­cal­ly and in­ter­na­tion­al­ly.

The found­ing mem­bers one of the old­est mas­ters swim­ming clubs in T&T are Joey Kauff­man, Mervyn Mar­quez and Gor­don Bor­de. Many of the ex­ec­u­tive/com­mit­tee mem­bers have been con­sis­tent per­form­ers in their Mas­ters age groups over the last 20 years, and have been ded­i­cat­ed to swim­ming from its in­cep­tion.

In the Mara­cas Open Wa­ter Clas­sic on Sun­day, there was a great in­crease in the num­ber of Mas­ters swim­mers tak­ing part and par­tic­i­pat­ing in the 2,650m and 5,000m races. Bor­de, Jacque­line Jod­han, Louis Mar­tin and Lin­den Scott all won their races in their re­spec­tive age cat­e­gories, and many of the old­er swim­mers such as Bruce Pereira and Hat­to Pid­duck al­so par­tic­i­pat­ed, along with stal­wart sup­port­er, Glen Wilkes. Mas­ters Swim­ming Club has set out a strate­gic plan for the way for­ward, and has in­cor­po­rat­ed the Mara­cas Open Wa­ter Clas­sic in­to the Blue Wa­ters Se­ries, which in­cludes open wa­ter swim­ming events in Nevis, Cay­man Is­lands and the Turks and Caicos.
