Headed by National Coach and dual Olympic Coach Greg Towle
Our focus is on providing a program that is Athlete focused and Coach driven, which is supported by Parents, to produce an environment that is safe, enjoyable and conducive to developing athletes regardless of age or ability to produce their best.
It is our belief that this, together with encouraging and developing the swimmers to invest in and take accountability for their own levels of Commitment, Effort and Positive Attitude will not only lead to producing better athletes but will inevitably ensure we also produce quality people.
Olympic Champion - Gold Medal Rio 2016 - Women Pentathlon
Greg and I met back in 2012 at the London Olympics at a time he was coaching the Australian open water team. Knowing I trained alone when I was in Australia he opened the door for me to train with him and his squad. This was a great opportunity for me, suited my schedule perfectly and was flexible to my circumstances, whether travelling for competition or training overseas. Greg's coaching style was exactly what I needed...old school tough love! This approach coupled with his focus on technique, which I so desperately needed, helped me achieve my PB's. Greg's positivity, motivation and ongoing support to push my swimming to the next level played a huge role in achieving my life long dream, becoming Olympic champion in Modern Pentathlon for Australia - reflecting on it now, I owe so much to him. I will always remember what he said to once my injury subsided and returned to overseas for my final games preparation; Greg's coaching, his support and his words will stay with me as I continue to live my dream...knowing I can call on him if I ever need to.
2004 FINA 5km World Champion
We achieved a lot together in a very short time. State titles, National titles & a World Championship Gold medal. No mornings were missed, no evenings shortcuts, no stone left unturned. We were more than a coach & an athlete, we were two mates chasing a dream & in Dubai 2004 we both captured it.
