Batchelor chalks up 19th record at Mayfair Pools NZ Age Group Swimming It was the Sophia Batchelor Show again on the second night of finals at the Mayfair Pools New Zealand Age Group Swimming championships in Wellington tonight. The 16 year old from Christchurch took out the finals of the 100m freestyle and the 50m butterfly at the Wellington Regional Aquatic Centre. Batchelor, coached by Leanne Speechley at the AquaGym club, set a new national age group record in the 50m butterfly, clocking 27.17 to win the final, 0.6sec inside the old mark. It is the 19th current national age group record held by Batchelor, who also holds one national open record. The championships, which have attracted a record 656 swimmers, continue until the weekend.
