💦 Meet Our Coaching Team 💦
We’re proud to have a passionate and experienced coaching team dedicated to helping swimmers of all ages and abilities thrive.
Peter brings elite-level experience and decades of coaching expertise to the pool. As an Olympic Finalist (Australian Dolphin #313), Commonwealth Games gold & silver medalist, National Champion, and former Australian 200m freestyle record holder, Peter’s knowledge is second to none.
With over 30 years of coaching on the Sunshine Coast, he creates a positive, inclusive squad environment where swimmers can build confidence, refine technique, and continue improving their performance.
Helen brings a strong technical foundation and a welcoming approach. With over a decade in Learn to Swim and coaching since 2019, she is passionate about developing great technique and creating clear pathways into squad swimming for everyone - whether competitive or not.
As a development coach Helen has a special passion for adult squads and understands firsthand how important encouragement and belonging are in the water.
Together, Peter & Helen are committed to building a supportive, fun, and motivating environment where every swimmer can enjoy the journey and reach their potential. 💙
