Swimmers brush up their strokes

-

 Pembrokeshire's top young swimmers took part in a special skills camp at the weekend.

-

Thirteen of the best swimmers from five County clubs pooled their talent at Pembroke Leisure Centre pool on Saturday.

-

The training camp was the final session in a series of three winter skills camps organised by Pembrokeshire Leisure - Pembrokeshire County Council's leisure arm.

-

Previous winter camps were held in Milford Haven in October and Crymych in January.

-

On Saturday the nine to 12 year-olds were put through their paces by Paul Dowey, Pembrokeshire Leisure's swimming development coach

-

"I am very pleased with the progress that these young swimmers have made since September," said Paul Dowey.

-

"It is a testament to the hard work of the volunteers in all our development clubs".

-

The skills camps are designed for those youngsters who already swim competitively with their local clubs.

-

Youngsters are selected from five member clubs of Pembrokeshire County swimming - Haverfordwest Seals, Milford Haven Tigers, Pembroke & District, Tenby Dolphins and Fishguard Flyers.

-

Swimmers will now be re-selected for future camps based on their results from the 200m individual medley event.

-

Anyone interested in joining a competitive swimming club should contact their local leisure centre.
