\u201cIt is great to see the youngsters coming up, starting their swimming careers, and that fitness is still a priority at 69,\u201d said the Namibia Swimming Federation\u2019s (NASFED) Executive Committee Member, Nicky McNamara.<\/p>\n

The swimming gathering is sponsored by Bank Windhoek and hosted by NASFED. \u201cWe are excited about the gala; our swimmers have been training hard. The water temperatures are still on the chillier side. However, our swimmers are acclimating to the changes from the indoor pool to outdoor well and should be able to give us their best,\u201d said McNamara.<\/p>\n
