After the morning session - 7-9am, and the mandatory pushing mike in the pool!...........
everyone headed back to pack their suitcases for the long journey home. Check out was at 11, but the coach wasn't arriving until 12.30 to collect everyone. Everyone congregated around reception and played cards. The hotel provided packed lunches so everyone had something to eat before they left .... The coach arrived bang on time and as Niamh and I waved goodbye, everyone was looking like they had mixed feelings, sad to be leaving, but happy at the same time, ready for their long journey home.
Everyone seems to have had a fantastic trip this year, although there was a large group of us, everyone has got on fantastically well together, there has been some great training this week, thanks go to mike for sorting the swim and gym sessions, also to all the chaperones for their help this week and most importantly to all our swimmers for being so well behaved and for making the swim camp such a success....
Here's to SWIM CAMP 2016??!!!........... ;)

I've really enjoyed following the swim camp. Well done to everyone involved xx
Well what can I say. It was a privilege to be part of a wonderful experience. I gave witnessed what only I can say was some kids that truly showed true grit when it came to showing what was training. When we has adults train we gloat telling everybody what we did or can do, but in 7 days these 29 kids each swam in the region of 60kms plus 3-4 land training sessions and numerous miles down to the beach and back. Not once did we hear moans or groans they just got on with it. So roll on 2016 and hopefully a even better swimcamp.
