HERE WE HAVE EVERYTHING WE NEED

Between the 12th and 23th July the Sweden National Swimming Team held a training camp in the Rio Maior Sports Centre. The Swedish team chose Rio Maior to prepare  the European Swimming Championships held in Berlin between the 13th and 24th August 2014.

The team won six medals, including three gold, two silver and one bronze. The swimmer Sarah Sjöström stood out in the 100 meter freestyle and 50 meters butterfly and won the gold medals. She also participated in two relay races, where the team of Sweden won a gold and a silver  medal.

During the training camp in Rio Maior the Head Coach, Ulrika Sandmark, gave us a testimony about our Sports Centre.

“I think it´s very good. We have everything we need here. We get full support on everything. Good food, good accommodation, good training, and if we need anything they fix anything for us. It´s good for professional sports. It´s good for a hard training camp.” told us Ulrika Sandmark.
