 30/10/08  surrey park achieves gold award in 2008 goclub pb awards scheme 

Surrey Park Swimming Club is now a GOLD Award recipient of the 2008 GoClub PB Awards scheme  

Australian Unity GO Club PB is a national swimming club standard established to recognise and reward swimming clubs by measuring their performance across five key areas: 

  • Membership: measuring the clubs ability to attract new members and maintain or increase its existing membership base.
  • Administration: measuring the clubs ability to operate efficiently, safely and remain financially viable.
  • Activities: measuring the clubs participation levels from club nights through to national championships, and also the number of social activities on offer for its members.
  • Coaching and Officiating: Measuring the number of technical officials available, the coach to swimmer ratio, and the level of participation in regional and state development activities.
  • Marketing and Promotion: measuring the clubs commitment to communication with its membership and the ability to attract sponsorship dollars, through promotion utilising local media, web page and activities for non member organisations.

    Results from the 2008 Australian Unity GO CLUB PB workbooks reveal swimming clubs around the nation are improving their performance and management structures providing a better environment for all members, athletes, coaches, officials, administrators and parents. Thanks to our president, staff and club committee who have worked hard to help Surrey Park achieve the GO CLUB PB GOLD LEVEL.

 19/10/08  HAZELWOOD 10K

After a very warm day yesterday, we were reminded of the unpredictable nature of Open Water swimming once again as swimmers and spectators arrived rugged up in response to the 17C and chilly outdoor conditions. Thankfully the water temperature was still warm and many of our National swimmers plus Kien-Anh (complete with support crew) swam the 10k course. Many swimmers were entered in the Open category this year to begin the step up to higher level competition and racing. The conditions were tough but the results were excellent in both the Open category Age categories. Thankyou to our coaches for all of their work over the weekend, the families who travelled down and cheered on our swimmers and especially those who were not competing but stayed down on Sunday and who were a great support to the 10k swimmers.

Most of all -congratulations to our competitors- you did a fantastic job!  Photos : click here   (be patient while file loads)
