The home pool advantage served the Moose Jaw Kinsmen Flying Fins well over the weekend at the Kinsmen Sportsplex.

The local swim club collected 28 medals and finished in fourth place overall in the team standings as they hosted the Swim Saskatchewan Junior 'A' Short Course Championship.

"This weekend was really good, I had lots of fun swimming with not only my friends but competing against other teams from around Saskatchewan," said 13-year-old Damian Chartrand, who four medals and captured two 'AA' times during the meet.

Chartrand took gold in 200-metre freestyle, silver in the 50m breaststroke and 400m freestyle, and bronze in the 50m freestyle.

He said he's very happy with how he was swimming, especially getting the two 'AA' times, "It's really encouraging and makes me feel like I want to do it more," said Chartrand.

"I've been trying to practice harder and work on my technique."
