Olympian Max Litchfield helps youngsters with swimming skills
The Pontefract-born sports star, who competed in Rio 2016 and won two golds in the 2017 British Swimming Championships, attended the Marlins amateur swimming club last month.
The 22-year-old is a former member of the Marlins and returned to his roots to give swimming demonstrations and advice and support the club's youngsters with their technique.
