Otter clinched their first women's Super 5s title for five years as they beat Coventry 12-9 in their final match at Haberdasher's Aske's School today. A point would have been sufficient for Otter to rob Liverpool of a fourth consecutive victory - but, with Lily Turner scoring seven times, the London side made absolutely sure of the trophy.
Coventry provided stern opposition, recovering from 8-4 down to trail only 9-8 midway through the last. But Otter rallied again in the final stages, breaking clear with two goals from Turner and another from Katy Cutler. Vicki Hawkins scored four of the Coventry goals.
The trophy and medals were presented by Mike Farrar, Chairman, Swim England Board, assisted by BWPL President Pippa Jones.
