an Aruban record
in Kazan, Russia                         Russia Jordy Groters concluded the competition with tremendous
                                         and impressive results.
                                         In the 50m breast stroke Jordy Groters improved his time thus
                                         breaking an Aruban record once more with a time of 28.64.
                                         With this time Jordy ended up in 41st place world ranking.

                                         Jordy Groters’ coach Andrew Grevers from the University of Mis-
                                         souri that accompanied him to Kazan was extremely satisfied with
                                         Jordy’s performance. He explained that during Jordy’s first year
                                         at the University of Missouri they worked hard on helping him
                                         improve his style technique.
                                         Big changes such as location changes always affect the results at the
                                         beginning of the competition. Coach Grevers is extremely happy
                                         that despite this change Jordy still managed to improve his time
                                         and is convinced that they will start working on Jordy’s speed next
                                         year, which will results in much faster time results.

                                                                  Jordy Groters can now take some time to relax
