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 />
