For new swimmers we have made a list of our coach so swimmers aren’t anxious going on to new squads.
I consider myself as a bit of a dinosaur now but I still get a lot of enjoyment from Coaching. Helping swimmers to achieve their potential, sharing in their journey and having lots of laughs along the way is hugely rewarding.
I’m old(ish), I’m a professional photographer with my own studio and love my job. I enjoy swimming and do a lot of scuba diving and snorkelling when on holiday, I love a wee swim with sharks when I get the chance 😉.
I have coached every level at Glenrothes, from the absolute beginners to having a spell as Head Coach of the club.
When I’m not poolside I enjoy time with the family and going abroad to sunnier climates or on the golf course.
I started swimming later in life and coaching even later. I love outdoor swimming as well as lane swimming and now teach with fife leisure.
I have 4 children who all swim and I work in a school. I spend a lot of time at the pool!
What makes coaching great?
The reaction from the swimmers when they are challenged either in training or in a race situation.
The joy on their face when they have achieved their goal
