CLONLARA’S Dylan Prenderville took home four gold medals at the World Dwarf Games in Cologne, Germany.

Held from July 28th to August 5th, the eighth Dwarf Games saw Dylan return home with a total of four medals to his credit.

A member of Limerick Swim Club, Dylan took gold in the 50m Butterfly, 50m Backstroke, 50m Freestyle and the 100m Freestyle.
