Team GB star Adam Peaty is coming to Coalville to help coach the next generation of talented swimmers from Leicestershire.

The three-times Olympic gold medallist and eight-times world champion is bringing AP Race Clinics to Whitwick and Coalville Leisure Centre on Thursday, August 10.

Founded in 2019, AP Race Clinics aims to inspire swimmers, parents and coaches on their journey through the sport of swimming.

Adam, the world record holder in the 50m and 100m breaststroke, will be joined by his support team at the centre, which is run by leading operator Everyone Active in partnership with North West Leicestershire District Council.

Supporting the 16-times European champion is Ed Baxter, a gold medallist at the 2015 Youth Commonwealth Games and a multiple British champion and British record holder, as well as additional coaches and a psychologist.

There will be four stations set up across the day, three for swimmers and one for parents.

The swimmers have a swim station, where they will be coached by Adam himself, as well as gym and racing edge stations, where they will receive expert advice from a strength and conditioning coach and a psychologist, respectively.

In addition, there is a parents support station where insights will be shared from the team's combined experiences, while anything swimming-related can be explored and discussed.

AP Race Clinics are also offering local club coaches the chance to attend for free and receive mentoring from one of the leading senior coaches in the country.

To round off the day, four-times Commonwealth Games gold medallist Adam will give a presentation on his career, the lessons he has learned and how he has managed to sustain his sky-high levels of success.

Duncan Gibb, Everyone Active's contract manager, said: "We are hugely excited to welcome Adam and his team to Whitwick and Coalville Leisure Centre.

"This is a fantastic opportunity for promising swimmers from the local community to receive the best possible training and advice.

"Adam's incredible achievements in swimming speak for themselves and for swimmers, parents and coaches to learn from him in our state-of-the-art facility is too good an opportunity to miss."

Councillor Michael Wyatt, Portfolio Holder for Community Services at NWLDC, said: "Bringing Adam Peaty to the Whitwick and Coalville Leisure Centre is a great way to inspire swimmers and show them the facilities that are available for people across the district.

"We're very proud of the opportunities the leisure centre brings to the district and will look forward to welcoming Adam and his team to the state-of-the-art facility."
