The British Swimming National Squad will come together for their first camp in May when they travel to Cyprus for an intense week of training.
A team of up to 45 swimmers will be staying at the Coral Bay Beach Resort in Paphos following the Preparation Meet at University of Bath on 8th to 9th May.
Coral Bay was notably the venue of the swimming squad’s preparation camp ahead of the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens where British Swimmers went on to claim two bronze medals.
