Do you WYCWYC ?!
Doing what you can when you can is how many of us busy people volunteer our time to help out.
Unfortunately this is often difficult in swimming because most of the expertise is in peoples’ heads. New volunteers can find it difficult to get involved because they often don’t know where to start. People are regularly re-inventing things, and much runs using labour intensive processes and outdated systems.
Together we are changing that!
Are you enthusiastic and busy?
This is a resource for enthusiastic and busy volunteers who want maximum fun and results from minimum effort! We dream of the swimming sport being easy to get involved and help run, using modern systems.
This website is to allow like minded people to share best practices and act as a collaboration and innovation hub. We want to share what works, what doesn’t, and how to do it better. Together we can make a big difference.
