Swimming Australia, in partnership with Masters Swimming Australia, has announced a new joint initiative aimed at connecting swimming pathways to ensure participation for life.
The pair, who already work side by side in Swimming Australia’s head office, will see their relationship be enhanced further, with members using the new registration and membership platform, Swim Central, to manage their memberships.
Commenting on the new platform, Master Swimming Australia general manager, Sarah Pisterman, said: “We have worked hard with Swimming Australia to ensure a seamless migration of our members to Swim Central.”
“This is a great achievement to have the junior and masters swimming community together using the same system and allows us to plan for better streamlining of the sport across the full lifespan of the pathway,” she said.
Swimming Australia executive general manager of sport development, Kirin Lindop, added: “The alignment with Masters Swimming Australia is invaluable in ensuring our swim for life vision is achieved.”
“We will continue to work with Masters to ensure the swimming pathway is strengthened through connection and partnerships,” Lindop said.
The announcement comes after Swimming Australia announced a partnership with City Fertility.
