Breaking Records: Antonis Galatopoulos and Harris Fereos Shine in Pancyprian Swimming Competitions

The English School is proud to celebrate the remarkable achievements of two of our talented students, Antonis Galatopoulos (3 Red) and Harris Fereos (3 Yellow), who have recently made waves in the Pancyprian Swimming Championships. Representing their respective teams, they not only showcased their individual talents but also contributed to record-breaking performances that will leave a lasting legacy in Cypriot swimming history.

On December 22 and 23, 2024, Antonis and Harris were part of the 4x50m freestyle and 4x50m mixed relay teams that shattered two Pancyprian records for 14-year-old boys (Παμπαίδων Α). Most notably, the freestyle relay team obliterated the previous record by an impressive 10 seconds, a feat that reflects their dedication, perseverance, and extraordinary teamwork.

In addition to these incredible relay achievements, Antonis Galatopoulos also excelled in individual events. Among boys born in 2010, he recorded the fastest times in the 50m breaststroke and 100m breaststroke events, securing the fifth-best time overall, even when competing against men. Furthermore, he achieved the second-best time in the 100m freestyle for his age group. These accomplishments underscore Antonis’ exceptional talent and commitment to swimming.

The English School congratulates Antonis and Harris on these outstanding achievements. Their hard work and determination not only brought them personal success but also inspired their peers and demonstrated the spirit of excellence that defines our school community.

We are incredibly proud of Antonis and Harris and look forward to witnessing their future successes in and out of the pool. Bravo!
