Junior Pan Pacific Swimming Championships


As the dust begins to settle on a frantic couple of weeks of senior international swimming, the juniors now get a chance to show what they are made of. Junior Pan Pacs start today and it will be fascinating to see how this meet compares to the European Junior Championships that took place last month in Helsinki.
