During the evening, at the General Foods Sports and Social Club, Mrs Prentis also thanked the club’s volunteers, parents and coaches for all their hard work.
Mrs Prentis said: “I was honoured to be invited to present the club’s prizes, not least because I was a member of Banbury Swimming Club as a child.
“Sport is an integral part of our community, and the opportunity to learn to swim is particularly important for young people.
