2010 Durham and District Junior League (DDJL) aka Diddy League FINALS

The company R Bland Ltd have committed generous sponsorship to DASC's forthcoming Darlington Dander Meet on 10 October 2010 at the Dolphin Centre.

Darlington ASC recently took part in the Durham and District Junior League Division 2 Finals at Felling on Sunday 27 June.

The swimmers looked fantastic in the Parade in their green T-shirts and wigs. They all gave of their best and did really well to come 4th in this division, narrowly missing out on 3rd place. It was a noisy and exciting gala and we are proud of all those who swam for the club. Thank you also to the very enthusiastic support of our (well kitted-out) parents.

DASC would also like to thank all those who have worked very hard to prepare the swimmers and to help at any of the 4 Diddy League galas in any way. Special thanks to Emma Hughes, Glen Fenby, Ste Bell, Di Pallister, Laurence and Sarah Murray, Catherine Fenby and Michael Patan.

2010 Durham and District Junior League (DDJL) aka Diddy League 

Darlington ASC will be taking take part in the Diddy League galas of the 2010 series. The galas are always very competitive, but also friendly, noisy and lots of fun. There are individual races and relay races. They are a great opportunity to compete against swimmers from other clubs and gain experience of taking part in galas. If selected to represent DASC, we do hope that you will be keen to be part of our team and to do your best for our club. Team sheets will be posted in advance of each gala.

The Diddy League is for swimmers who will be aged 9,10,11,or 12 on 28 November 2010. You need to be a member of DASC and to be registered with the ASA (Category 1 is sufficient.) DASC will again be competing in a combined Division 2/Division 3 series of three galas (as last year), with separate finals for each division.
