A magnificent result in the 2019 Challenge Cup hosted by Bridport Barracudas: Turbos came a very close second (234 points) behind winners Burnham-on-Sea (237), with Blandford third (229) then Sherborne Storm (208), Heron (178) and Barracudas (135). Turbos achieved ten first places, winning the thrilling final mixed cannon 10x25m freestyle in which 60 swimmers compete! Head Coach Chris Gassmann said: "Turbos showed excellent team spirit at a meet where the lead was continually changing. Very well done everybody!"
