Club Natación Axarquía is a humble club from a small county in the south of Europe, without the structure or resources of Spanish swimming's big names.
And still it reaches the finals of the Spanish Championships and goes toe to toe with Sabadell, Real Canoe and Sant Andreu: club titles, relay golds and individual podiums.
Every medal on these pages was earned in the water, against the best in the country. This is what the Axarquía has put on the podium.
