IT’s turning in to another amazing year for Mount Kelly swimmer Alice Kinsey, after she gained no less that 13 short course and five long course National Deaf records (catergory A).

Alice went one step further over the Easter weekend by claiming four gold medals to be crowned national champion in the 11 years and under (cat A) in 50m breast, back, fly and freestyle at the Great Britain National Deaf Championships, held at Loughborough University.

Alice was diagnosed with her hearing loss at the age of five, this has not stopped her from following her passion. Being a local girl from Callington, Alice was supported by Robin Brew, director of swimming at Mount Kelly, and given an amazing opportunity to follow her dreams and train with some of the best swimmers in the country if not the world.  

Alice wishes all her friends the very best of luck when they compete at the Deaflympics in Turkey this year.
