Swimming in Australia


Swimming for Parents is a vital resource for all swimming parents.
Swimming for Parents is a vital resource for all swimming parents.

You will refer to it over and over again as your child progresses through the swimming world.



This book has everything to enable you to assist your child to excel in the sport of swimming and in life.

There is so much more to swimming than winning medals and doing PB’s. Discover the many wonderful ways that swimming will assist your child to develop physically and mentally, as well as the many life skills they will enjoy for ever.

This book has been written for parents of new swimmers, junior swimmers and age group swimmers up to the age of 18 years. It also provides valuable information for parents of State and National level swimmers.
To my knowledge there has never been published a resource such as “Swimming for Parents” available to the parents of swimmers.

It fills a vacuum in information for parents which has needed addressing for many decades.

Dear Gary,
As a parent who has recently had a child start swimming training in a junior squad I would like to thank you for answering many questions I have in this great book.

It is quite daunting to begin a new sport (we love our basketball and my daughter also loves to swim) and I now have a strong understanding of all the road-humps that may lie ahead and how I can fully support my daughter’s participation in the sport.

Thanks so much,
Jo Metcalfe
