Our CEO Andy Salmon emphasises the importance of staying in swimming lessons:🗣️“It is vital we ensure our children are staying in lessons to most importantly keep them safe but also to allow them to have great experiences in the water which are so valuable." #LoveSwimming

The swimming presentation team on @BBCOne @Olympics is absolutely top class... @clarebalding @MarkFosterSwim @BeckAdlington @Andyjamesonswim @adrianmoorhouse @sharrond62 If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Well done to @BBCSport production for keeping the A Team in place. #peaty

We had the best humour! For me Paris’s opening ceremony was devoid of any and all humour

The “Ready Room” … the “Call Room”. Call it what you like, the last place you stop before entering the Olympic Arena. You sit so close to your rivals … So many races won and lost in this very room, before you even swim. Only 3 more sleeps folks! Just 3 😁

So true…
Just read this, so good! If you're coachable, you have a different relationship with feedback and criticism. You don’t take it personally. You have the humility & curiosity to listen. You have the maturity to understand that feedback and criticism are there to help you improve.

Gold dust from Coach Lisle. Couldn’t agree more on the importance of enthusiasm, willingness to learn, appreciation for others, respect and consequences for unacceptable behaviour.
Geno Auriemma was asked how every single player on his team is so enthusiastic. He gave an answer that every young athlete should hear 👏

Congratulations to Maisie, Yr11, who competed at her Regional Championships where she won 2 gold (400m free/4x100m free) & 3 silver (1500m free/800m free/4x200m free) medals! Maisie also swam her best time in 3 races which should place her on British rankings for the Summer! 🏊🏻‍♀️🏅
