Gathered at the pool were swimmers, Coaches and families, including President and Vice president of Swimming PNG, Elizabeth Wells.

 

From kids to adults, swimmers gathered for a photo shoot with their coaches.  Also in the crowd, was PNG’s Number swimming sensation, Ryan Pini, who thanked BSP for their generosity, and spoke words of encouragement to our up and coming swimmers.

 

Straight after the shoot, a cheque of K80, 000, was handed over to President, Liz Wells, Vice President Bruce Mead, and PNG’s swim engine, Ryan Pini.

 

To the kid’s surprise, Tura the Kokomo, mascot of the 2015 SP Games, flew in. Tura cuddled and shook hands with the kids.

 

This donation will go into Swimming PNG, and will cater for the needs of our swimmers, and other related expenses.
