  • Summary

  • Our final episode in the series features the passionate Brian Sweeney, who is head coach at Templeogue Swimming Club, home of Ellen Walshe - the first Irish woman to swim 100m Butterfly in less than 60 seconds.

    Team TSC is a thriving club with swimmers joining after Learn to Swim and continuing all the way through to Masters level, including getting involved in Open Water.

    It's home is a small pool in Dublin, which Brian and Ellen are at the heart of.  She first entered Brian's radar aged nine, insisting on swimming a 500m sponsored swim entirely Butterfly.

    Her love of the stroke has been nurtured by Brian to the point where next week she will attempt to swim the Tokyo 2021 qualification time for the 100m Butterfly at the Irish National Team Trials.

    You can watch all the action LIVE from anywhere in the world via the RTE Player.
