An impressive young diver has won a silver medal at his latest competition.

Year 7 student Warren Hackley came second at The Thistle Trophy and Scottish Open and National Diving Championships in Edinburgh.

Warren’s 18-strong diving team, from Corby Steel Diving Club, also came fourth out of 12 clubs which had entered the competition from across the whole of Scotland and parts of England.

Warren began diving three years ago after being selected during an ASA (Amateur Swimming Association) talent identification programme at his primary school.
