LEVEL 1 COACHTOM OSBORN

Tom started coaching around 3 years ago as a volunteer coach. He is now a qualified Level 1 and is studying for his Level 2. Tom swam with the club as a teenager and has always loved improving his technique, getting faster and chasing those PBs. Having the opportunity to work with our amazing young swimmers, instilling those same skills and watching them improve and win medals, is what coaching is all about for him. It’s been so inspirational that he has recently got back in the pool as a master swimmer.
