He continues to shine again

Propellers Swimming Club recently hosted 5x African Champion Clayton Jimmie in Botswana.

▪ Propellers Swimming club in preparation for Botswana Swimming Sport Association (BSSA) Swimming Nationals host 5x African Champion, Clayton Jimmie to train a swimming clinic in Gaborone.

Propellers Swimming Club, had the pleasure to host the 5x African Swimming Champion, Clayton Jimmie for a swim clinic, at Showcase and Molapo Jacks Gym (the official Propellers Swimming club pool) on the 28th of January 2023. The exciting clinic served to bring a world class professional swimmer to Botswana, to teach and inspire our swimmers. The oversubscribed clinic, had many children and parents in attendance, in great anticipation at meeting a current African champion right at their door step.

As Propellers Swimming club, our intention is to inspire our swimmers to ultimately perform at high world standards. We invited this International and African swimming giant, Mr Jimmie to deliver a day swim clinic to teach Propellers Swimming Club and Academy youth swimmers.

The swim clinic was held in two parts, starting the morning at Molapo Showcase, with an astounding motivational speech (were the children got to understand what it takes to be a world class swimmer), followed by an interactive session and then closed off with a Q&A session. The children were totally engaged, in awe and took in so much information. After lunch and refreshments, it was time to put into practice what the kids had heard and learnt from the theory session. As our club saying goes, “It’s time to switch on your Propellers!” Mr Jimmie coached the children in their age groups and team squads and the superb day ended off with a race against the world champ himself! Needless to say, the swimmers, parents and supporters had a remarkable day.

Clayton Jimmie is a South African powerhouse professional swimmer, and a 5 time African Champion. He is also pursuing the 2024 Paris Olympics A Times. When asked what his mission to Botswana was, he said, “My mission is to educate and inspire the youth, encourage them to be swimmers, and also to help them understand that there is a world of opportunities available through swimming. He also stressed the importance of not only focusing on performance and winning, but that it was equally important to have fun and love the sport.”

Propellers Swimming Club partnered with Clayton Jimmie as part of their program to get their swimmers prepared and ready for the Botswana Swimming Nationals, to be held on 23rd – 26th February 2023 at The UB swimming pool. The club hopes to continue to be a strong contributor and player to Botswana swimming and sports at large within our community.
