🏊‍♂️ Yorkshire Swimming Development Programme – Camp 2 a Success! 🏊‍♀️

The second Yorkshire Aquatics Swimming Development Programme camp, held last weekend, has been hailed a huge success, bringing together 36 talented swimmers for a day of learning, development, and inspiration at York Sports Village.

The programme combined pool training, strength & conditioning, and educational workshops covering topics such as nutrition, mental health, and athlete lifestyle — all designed to support swimmers both in and out of the water.

🌟 A highlight of the camp was a visit from Olympic medallist James Wilby, who shared insights from his journey and inspired athletes and coaches alike.

👏 A huge well done to all swimmers, coaches, and staff who made the camp such a positive and valuable experience.
