Having joined Crawley in 2011, as a lapsed swimmer, Tom has worked hard for his success, and the combination of Crawley coaching, Basingstoke Regional Training Centre, and national league experience with neighbours, Worthing has given his talent the necessary pathway.
This is Crawley Swimming Club’s 50th Year. Waterpolo was one of the club’s original three disciplines when it was formed in 1964.
Crawley has produced a number of swimmers who achieved international representation over those 50 years, beginning with Amy Charlier, swimming for GB Juniors as early as 1968.
It has taken 50 years to achieve an international water polo representation, it is great to see this happen in this milestone year.
