GAW Athletes Selected to attend County Development Camps

Three Gateshead and Whickham Athletes have been selected to attend the Swim England Pathway County Development Camps, scheduled to take place in March and July.

  • Anna Finlay
  • Max Murray
  • Daniel Barrett

They were selected as a result of their top 10 positions in one or more Olympic events at the recent county championships.

The camps will provide an opportunity for swimmers to develop their technical, tactical, physical and psychological skills with swimmers of a similar age and ability from across the county. The camps will also provide an opportunity for swimmers to work with different coaches and to train in different environments.

Congratulations to all three!!

Coach Nesworthy
