Swimming - Pembrokeshire Puffins Sessions

The Pembrokeshire Puffins are a pan disability swimming club. It's purpose is to give people of all ages who have a disability the opportunity to train, compete, progress & win at their own level. The club is run entirely by volunteers who freely give their time. By highlighting abilities rather than disabilities the successes of our athletes help increase self confidence not just in training & competition but in their daily lives too. Every swimmer participates to his or her fullest potential whilst upholding the spirit of sportsmanship. New friendships are often formed. There are now over 30 swimmers from all over Pembrokeshire who come along with their families.  The puffins meet every Sunday at Pembroke leisure centre from 3-5pm.

The Pembrokeshire Puffins Disability Swimming Club held their 4th annual gala on Saturday 13th November 2010 at the Haverfordwest Leisure Centre.  The Puffins hosted disability swimmers from four other South Wales clubs:  Bridgend Sharks, Cardiff Chameleons, Caerphilly Dragons and Swansea Stingrays.  Winners’ medals and shields were presented by sponsors Milford Haven Port Authority and the Pembrokeshire Charity Bike Ride/Kilimanjaro climbers, with assistance from the Mayor of Haverfordwest Town Council and Stephen Crabb MP.

The Puffins are travelling to Birmingham on Saturday 26th February 2011.
