Caerphilly Sport and Leisure Services scoops top award
The service won the best innovation award at the Welsh Sports Association Sports Industry Awards for its SWIMTAG project, which uses wearable technology to enhance the swimming experience.
The initiative, which is the first of its kind in Wales, allows swimmers to track their performance, set goals, and engage in gamified challenges.
The technology has been introduced in pools in Caerphilly, Heolddu, Newbridge, and Risca, and has been praised for its positive impact on community health and fitness.
The service's commitment to combining innovation with community wellbeing was also recognised at the Swim Wales annual awards, where it received the health impact award.
