Squad Coach - David Gee Squad Coach - Alison Stevens She joined Slough and Eton Dolphins Swimming Club when she was 11 years old and swum with the club in a variety of different squads for about 15 years and she only left as swimming didn't mix very easily with having a small baby. She had previously swum for Seabirds in Harlington and was picked for the Forward Hillingdon Squad when she was about 9. She became a member of the club again when Craig and Daniel decided to swim and after about 6 months became a parent helper. She really enjoyed making a difference to the swimmers and in September 2008, after successfully completing her Level 1 Coaching Course, was asked to join the coaching team officially as a squad coach. Alison has now successfully completed her Level 2 Coaching course. Level 2 Coach Maurice Tsang Level 1 Coaches Alison Leah Hannah Bennett Sue Topchik |
