GRAL Swimming Champs This Weekend; Fall Sports Start Monday!

Eleven Hanover County swimming clubs sent a total of 504 swimmers to the Greater Richmond Aquatic League's annual CHAMPS post-season competition, being held this weekend for the first time at the new Collegiate School Aquatic Center in Chesterfield.

8-and-under competition was held Friday night. Today is competition for 9 to 12 year olds. Sunday wraps up the tournament with competitions for 13-to-18 year olds.

Look for Twitter coverage Sunday on @hanoversports, plus photos on our Facebook page and a recap of the tournament in the August 8th edition of the Hanover Herald-Progress!

------------------

The day has arrived!  Monday August 5th will begin, in earnest, the 2013-14 high school sports seasons, as two county football teams will begin practice and countless others will come to team tryouts and first-day practices.  Golf teams have already begun preparation for their season, which begins in ten days when Patrick Henry welcomes Orange for their first-ever meeting at Hanover Country Club.

We'll be covering and previewing every team from every sport at all four schools throughout August here on our web site, and in the sports section of the Hanover Herald-Progress each week.
