We are incredibly proud to celebrate the achievements of siblings Lanre and Fola, who recently competed at the 2026 Kent County Swimming Championships, held at the prestigious London Aquatics Centre in Stratford.
Lanre: Balancing Books and the Board
Lanre competed in six events and achieved a remarkable 100% “Top 6” finish rate. What makes these results even more impressive is that Lanre balanced his training with rigorous revision for his mock exams, where he also achieved top grades.

- 50m Backstroke: 4th Place
- 100m Backstroke: 5th Place

His ability to maintain such a high level of performance while prioritising his academics is a testament to his maturity and time-management skills.
