Woy Woy Swim Club member Joshua Smith has returned from the Arafura Games with nine medals.
Joshua competed in the Para-swim events and ended his campaign with five gold medals, two silvers and two bronze.

His silvers came from the 50m and 200m Freestyle events and his bronze medals from the 50m and 100m Breaststroke events.
Joshua also placed third in the 400m Freestyle but due to the Games' minus one rule applying to the event he was unsuccessful in attaining the bronze.
