The Grenada Amateur Swimming Association (GASA) is celebrating the hard work of the young swimmers.

“To sum it up, our team performed excellently. The swimmers swam hard. They understood the assignment. They were aware of the goal and each and everyone of them delivered. While everyone has not medalled, each one has achieved several PB’s in his/her various races- a commendable achievement!” GASA said.
