KENT COLLEGE Senior School pupil Alfie Goldsmith enjoyed resounding success at the Disability Sports Events National Junior Swimming Championships in Sheffield.

The 12-year-old, who was the youngest participant at the Ponds Forge meeting, collected a gold medal in the 100m men's relay, silver medals in the 50m freestyle, 50m butterfly, 50m backstroke, 100m freestyle and 100m backstroke and bronze medals in the 100m and 200m individual medley.
