The 18-year-old Warrender Baths Club athlete recently left Stewart’s Melville College and was in top form on Sunday evening as he finished third in the men’s 50m breaststroke final in a time of 27.83 seconds.

It rounded off a great few months of competing for him and he said: “I am now looking forward to going to Loughborough University to study Chemical Engineering and train at the National Swimming Centre.”

Goodburn’s younger sister Katie is also an up-and-coming swimming talent.
