Jasmine is NW Technical Official of the Year

Well done to Jasmine who always fights the odds to do something incredible

Jasmine has battled open heart surgery this year, a huge procedure which has been life changing. Swimming has always been central to Jasmine’s health and well being, and as a successful S14 swimmer being limited in her swimming has been incredibly hard.

Never deterred, Jasmine and her mum Liz found another way to keep Jasmine engaged with the sport she so loves.

Becoming a technical Official is a tough process at the best of times, but Jasmine never gave up and proved that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.  With the help of our wonderful senior Official Helen Inns, Jasmine spent hours and hours in training sessions learning the rules of an Official and how to apply them.  She volunteered at copious galas to get signed off, with her support team never too far away.

Well done Jasmine, this is a special victory for you, you have given back to the sport that you love during a particularly tough year for you personally.

Well done from everyone at Altrincham SC, you are awesome…. Now the next stage is to ease you back into the water too
