Coaching Team

The coaching team has a wealth of experience in teaching and coaching the pool environment through qualifications, their own swim experience and working closely with other coaches on the poolside.

As well as offering several weekly pool training sessions, we also coordinate Open-Water coached sessions during the OW season (May to the end of August).

Some of our coaches are trained to coach and lead dry-land training, such as Circuits and Strength and Conditioning sessions, and we run these for both Junior and Senior squads every week to supplement their swimming.
