"Our dads train once a week at Halifax Pool and will be performing to the theme tune of Game of Thrones."
The Christmas show will round off a great year for the club locally, regionally and nationally winning lots of medals as well as the under 12s team retaining their title as British National champions.
"All of our swimmers will be performing these routines along with our beginners, masters and dads team at the Christmas show," said Lisa. "We also have our Club Captain Isobel’s Davies, performing her solo. Isobel has, for the second year running, been selected to represent Great Britain in the junior squad. We are all very proud of her."
