Aqua Sphere again chosen as Official Swim Kit Partner to The British Gas Great Swim series

Aqua Sphere has again been chosen as the Official Swim Kit Partner to The British Gas Great Swim series.

Great Swim is the UK’s leading outdoor swim series and proved a huge success in 2009, with over 10,000 swimmers of all abilities taking up the challenge to swim a mile in one of four locations across the UK. The stunning settings included Lake Windermere, Strathclyde Country Park Loch, London’s Royal Victoria Dock and Alton Water in Suffolk.

Taking place from June to September, the 2010 series is expected to attract even more participants, from the recreational swimmer to acclaimed Olympic athletes, and entries are now open at www.greatswim.org.

Martin Newton of Aqua Sphere says: “Last year there was a fantastic atmosphere at each of the Great Swim events and it was great to see everyone, from youngsters to grandparents, simply having a go and enjoying the experience. It was also incredibly rewarding to see some of the world’s elite swimmers choosing to wear Aqua Sphere goggles and wet suits, and we have had some excellent feedback from Olympians and Commonwealth athletes on the quality and performance of our products. We look forward to an even bigger and greater 2010 series.”

The 2009 British Gas Great Swim series is currently being serialised on Channel 4.
