Over the years, the sport of swimming has achieved a new level of visibility, especially since the 2008 Beijing Olympics, with a growing enthusiastic fan base. With this growth and the notoriety of its athletes the USA Swimming Grand Prix Series of competitions, once thought of as mere swim meets, have become true Sporting Events, and SwimMAC is proud to be home to one of the longest standing Grand Prix Meets,
This week Swim MAC Carolina highlight Bermuda’s Burch.
“My name is Roy-Allan Saul Burch. I am married and a father of two (girl and boy). I was born in Bermuda and grew up in a small village off the main island called Somerset. I attended The Peddie School in New Jersey, USA and have lived the majority of my life in America ever since.
I wanted to push myself to be the best possible athlete I could be and Swim MAC was the best place for me to do it. It had all the necessary tools I needed to fully indulge in the sport and my family life. I am on the road to Rio and pushing to be the best.”
