The Alan Higgs centre proved to be a top class venue for our 1st training camp of 2025

Drills, timed racing, underwaters & relays all in the mix. Getting everyone back into the groove after the festive season. Massive #effort & #focus from every single swimmer

Great job #Team

@RichardTurner @bluebirdk7 So disrespectful and so unnecessary .

[DownSyndromeSwimmingGB @DSSGB1]

It’s a full house of @Swim_England officials checking the 161 competitors are compliant with @WorldAquatics rules @britdsswimchamp

We are so grateful to all our red shirts for their time & using their expert knowledge to make the Champs 2024 run efficiently & correctly

[DownSyndromeSwimmingGB @DSSGB1]

How’s the training going?
Only 20 days to go till @britdsswimchamp!

Don’t forget to eat & sleep well, stay hydrated. Remember to taper in the days leading up to the Champs - all the hard work is in the bank already!
