Star Swimmer of the week

A special place on this web site for recognition of outstanding achievements.

Ben Colmer and Dan Colmer





 

It's amazing what a one week crash course can do at at Shirley Pool.!




Ben & Dan are brothers who have been swimming a Shirley Pool since they were 3 years of age. Their Dad even learnt to swim there.

Ben is 7 and Dan is just 5 and they go to schools in Marchwood.
During the recent February crash course they accumulated 3 badges each.

Ben went from being able to swim 16 lengths to an amazing 80 lengths. He said that no one told him to stop so he kept on swimming. He also obtained his Water Skills 5 and Diving
level 1.



Dan meanwhile went from 2 lengths to 8 lengths and got his Water Skills 3 and Preliminary Diving badge.

Their success is down to the great teaching staff at Shirley. Both boys have gone from nervous non-swimmers to water babies.

Thank you Shirley Pool!
