Photos, Video: Pool Renamed After Flora Duffy
[Updated with photos] Warwick Academy held a ceremony this morning [Nov 21] to officially rename their swimming pool after world champion Bermudian triathlete Flora Duffy.
The 21-minute live video replay is below:
Duffy, who has won numerous international titles including multiple World Championships, attended Warwick Academy, and in deciding to name the pool after her, the school said that it is an honour to recognize her accomplishments, and by naming the pool after the World Champion, it can also show everyone who visits their school that “great sports people start somewhere, even in such a small place as Bermuda.”

Congrats Flora! Super proud to have gone to school with you. Would have been amazing if Mr. C could have been there to speak instead of Mr. Horan.
Congratulations all around!
What a wonderful idea to name the Warwick Academy swimming pool after Flora Duffy. Flora Duffy you are a national treasure and have shown great resilience and determination to become the super star athlete you are. The Warwick Academy ceremony was touching to watch. Thank you Warwick Academy and Flora Duffy.
