Coaches, participants, parents and clubs are being given an invaluable opportunity to play an active role in shaping the future of coaching in aquatics.
Swim England is to launch a new coaching strategy in 2025 and the views of the aquatics community will be at its heart.
The Co-creation of the Future of Coaching process aims to reconnect and redefine the purpose of coaching, build on existing good practice and create a thriving and flourishing coaching culture.
A survey is being distributed to more than 129,000 Swim England members, while a series of nationwide workshops will also be held for coaches to explore, reflect, discuss and develop ideas.
