Article by April 15, 2021
The Barbados Aquatic Sports Association (BASA) recently recognized their outstanding swimmers for 2020 including those who set national records.
Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, BASA was unable to have its annual awards and dinner ceremony where it recognises and rewards its top athletes, coaches, meet officials and volunteers.
The presentation held at the National Aquatic Centre showed appreciation for those who performed well in the pool.
BASA president Cheryl Lady Forde and past president Tony Selby presented the winners with their certificates.
In the 15 to 17 age group, Danielle Titus, based overseas, and Diego Dulieu, were the standouts in the female and male categories. Titus is currently based at Tulane University in New Orleans where Olympian Leah Martindale Stancil, the first Barbadian to reach an Olympic final in swimming, is the head coach.
