Games swimmers together

-

Three generation­s of Perth Commonweal­th Games swimmers came together yesterday at a touring exhibition that has arrived at the Dewars Centre.

The display has been drawn from the Commonweal­th Games Scotland Archive held by the University of Stirling.

‘Hosts and Champions: Scotland in the Commonweal­th Games’, supported by Live Active Leisure, celebrates more than 80 years of participat­ion by Scotland in the Commonweal­th Games and show cases achievemen­ts from 1930 through to 2014.

It will be at the Dewars Centre until June 26, and is free. It is the only Tayside venue in a year-long touring programme.

Milne won a relay medal in the pool at Glasgow last summer, while Sandy Gellatly competed in three Games(1958, 1966 and 1970) and Gary Watsons wam in 1986 and 1990.
