It is with great sadness that we regret to inform you of the untimely passing of Kev Warren last weekend. Kev will be fondly remembered as a compassionate individual who consistently demonstrated genuine interest in the pursuits of others. Whether engaged in swimming, water polo, or open water swimming, Kev was always present to offer words of encouragement. Our deepest sympathies extend to his daughter, Sophie, during this difficult time. Another esteemed member of the Association has passed. May Kev RIP.

In the midst of the Aquatics GB Championships last week, one of our own swimmers, Cpl Booth was making waves in the records books!
A new Welsh record in the 50m Breastroke was set by Cpl Booth.
The heats saw Cpl Booth in Heat 12 ploughing through to the A final against some formidable competition against the likes of eventual race winner Adam Ramsay-Peaty to finish 5th in Great Britain and 1st ever in Wales.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Incredible performance- we’re all proud of you, Kyle! 🇬🇧
