Cyprus Intensive Training Camp 2019
Between 23rd February 2019 and 2nd March 2019, a team of 28 swimmers and 6 staff travelled to Cyprus to undertake intensive training. The accommodation and training package were arranged and supported by Arena Sports Division (Paphos) at the resort.
The team stayed again at the Coral Beach Hotel and Resort in Paphos which was the official training venue for the Great Britain Olympic team prior to the 2004 Athens Olympic Games and is now regularly used by numerous National and club teams from all over Europe.
The hotel’s 50m outdoor Olympic Pool is built within the grounds of the resort and is only used by visiting teams and professional athletes.
The team had an extremely successful training camp with excellent facilities and support from all staff at the hotel, Arena and Sports Abroad.
The City of Newport Swimming Club would highly recommend this as an intensive training venue and look forward to taking more swimmers to Paphos in future years.
The Club are very grateful to the Cyprus Tourism Organisation (CTO) for the donation of 4250 Euros towards the cost of the training camp.
