Emilie Elliott

Emilie is one of the shining stars of Aberaeron Swimming Club, currently the Welsh National 13 year old 100 meter Backstroke Champion, she is also an outstanding performer in all other disciplines , proof of this is in the fact Emilie also achieved 3rd place in the Welsh Nationals for the 13 year old 100meters Freestyle.

As a 9 year old Emilie gave us a glimpse of the talent to come with her 2002 West Wales Championship results winning 3 of the 5 events, 2 of which were new championship records. In 2003 there was no let up as Emilie repeated this feat again picking up the 1st place for 3 of the 5 events.
