Structure

Wai-Yin Hatton is the newest addition to the British Swimming board. As well as a position on the board she will also act as the board’s liaison to the disability programme.

Hatton will liaise between the World Class Disability Swimming Programmes, GB Disability Technical Swimming Committee Chair, Ray Gordon and Tim Reddish Performance Director of British Disability Swimming.

The ASA is consulting to guide the ASA Board in the preparation of a document for ASA Council in October 2008. The ASA would want to have the benefit of the views of the membership on the purpose and structure of its committees in order to ensure that they are fit for purpose to deliver key objectives set out in the ASA’s Strategic Plan and Vision.

Questions are intended to help members in providing comments but the aim is not to limit debate. If you think there are other relevant issues, please feel free to include them in your response.

The consultation period will run until 4 June 2008 and the findings will be reported back to ASA Board on 27 June 2008, to allow discussion before preparation of appropriate information for ASA Council in October 2008. Therefore they would like to invite members to give their views either through the ASA website or in writing on the principles of the Review as outlined.

In addition to the officers of the Region, the following are postholders (updated from 2009 Handbook):
