Announced at this year’s AUSTSWIM Soak It Up International Conference on the Gold Coast, the AUSTSWIM Awards of Excellence are presented to individuals and organisations in Australia that achieve the highest standards of aquatic education excellence.
The national AUSTSWIM Awards of Excellence recognise brilliance, commitment, and innovation in the teaching of swimming and water safety.
The awards were officially presented to each recipient by AUSTSWIM Ambassador Brooke Hanson OAM and AUSTSWIM Chief Executive Officer Bradley Low.
“The AUSTSWIM Awards of Excellence began in 2004 with just three national award categories. These awards have now grown to over 15 and recognise our AUSTSWIM family on an international, national and state level. This significant growth is a testament to the dedication and passion within our industry and the continued importance of aquatic education. This year we received over 6,600 nominations across all the categories and are incredibly proud to see our industry come together to recognise brilliance, commitment, and innovation in the teaching of swimming and water safety. I would like to congratulate each of this year’s winners who are making an incredible and outstanding contribution to their local communities,” said AUSTSWIM Chief Executive Officer, Bradley Low.
AUSTSWIM is privileged to have the opportunity to honour AUSTSWIM teachers, presenters, Swim Centres, and programs who have each been outstanding in their field as well as those individuals that make a significant contribution to swimming and water safety.
