Scottish Swimmers head to Swansea
The National Aquatics Centre in Swansea is the venue hosting the British Para Swimming Winter National Meet. 23 of Scotland’s top swimmers will travel to Wales go head-to-head with their rivals from the other home nations on Saturday 11 and Sunday 12 December.
Although the event isn’t a qualifying event, all competitors will be looking to roll out their top performances as all swims will be on world ranking times so may ultimately contribute to Commonwealth Games Invitation.
The Scottish Team has a wide range of experienced swimmers. Bjorn Aaen (Hamilton Baths) and Jake Woods (City of Glasgow) will make their debut in the British event and will look to learn from Paralympians Scott Quin and Abby Kane. SDS would like to wish all swimmers, coaches and support staff listed below the best of events.
