WA Swimming has worked closely with WAIS<br />

over the past year. After lengthy consultation<br />

and drawing on input from local coaches and<br />

from Australian Swimming personnel, a new<br />

High Performance Coaching System was finally<br />

put into place.<br />

Development courses were conducted<br />

throughout the State, with sixty people<br />

participated in coaching and four hundred<br />

members in o÷cials courses. A total of two<br />

hundred and sixty one o÷cials were fully<br />

accredited, contributing to a total of seven<br />

hundred and eighty five o÷cials accredited in<br />

Western Australia. WA o÷cials attended all<br />

National meets, working over a range of<br />

positions. In addition, o÷cials continued to<br />

strongly support meets held by both the<br />

Association and other organisations.<br />

Electronic procedures and services continue to<br />

improve and expand in their influence as clubs<br />

<strong>2001</strong> world championship team<br />

move to electronic membership registration<br />

and competition entry. The web site maintains<br />

its status as one of the most popular<br />

<strong>swimming</strong> sites in Australia. Supplementing<br />

the Web is our weekly on-line News distributed<br />

to over 400 members and supporters.<br />

AUSTSWIM WA has continued to flourish since<br />

settling in to its new abode with our<br />

Association. The past year has seen an<br />

increase in the number of courses conducted<br />

and a consolidation of the support provided to<br />

the administration.<br />

Appreciation is expressed to the Department<br />

of Sport and Recreation for an increase in our<br />

services funding and the additional support to<br />

the Academy initiative. Also to Healthway and<br />

the Asthma Foundation for their ongoing<br />

sponsorship of the SwimFit series of State<br />

37<br />

Championships and supporting camps and<br />

programs. Thank you to our other major<br />

sponsors, the Hancock Family Medical<br />

Foundation, Shell, Zoggs, Telstra and Canon<br />

for their ongoing support.<br />

It is again a pleasure to extend our<br />

appreciation to the Board and sta≈ at<br />

Australian Swimming Inc for their continuing<br />

liaison and support. A great deal of<br />

development is carried out at national level,<br />

and their contribution to the operations at WA<br />

Swimming should be acknowledged.<br />
