John is also an academic, with a degree in Human Movements, a teaching diploma and a Master of Arts in Sports Administration from Alberta University in Canada. "A coach's role is to expand the horizons of the team," John explains. "And that means trying to develop the whole person, not just the cricketer. The same applies in any arena, be it sport, corporate, or life generally." MENTOR COACHING BUCHANAN-STYLE Coaching is about people, relationships and the environment that is provided for the individual and the group or team to grow. He, she, they grow by being stretched; by being taken somewhere where they have never been before. The coach needs to be someone who has a clear picture of where they are going and how they are going to get there; while at the same time cognizant of the fact that they do not exert total control over those who will make the dreams reality. Hence the mentor coach role is to fill in the spaces between the lines; to convert the theory into practice; to utilize experience as a key tool of education; and to allow the person being coached to be themselves, yet act as an ever present conscience. An example of this is John in a mentoring role with Stephen Waugh and Ricky Ponting. They were the captains of their teams – John was there to guide and challenge them, encourage their vision, their leadership, their team management and their personal lives. BILL SWEETENHAM Few coaches have transcended the world swimming stage like Bill Sweetenham. From an aspiring swimming coach in remote Mt Isa to Olympic glory, Bill has done it all. In the late 1970’s, while Queensland Director of Coaching, Bill developed a champion squad in Brisbane’s Valley Pool - with the star performer being the legendary Tracey Wickham. From here the AIS beckoned, with Bill becoming the Head Coach ... and soon after the Head Coach of the Australian Team at the 1988 Olympics. Bill has recently return from a successful stint in the ‘old country’ - charged with raising the standards of British Swimming. With a knowledge of junior development, age group swimming and high performance, second-to- none, Bill was certainly the man for the job. Bill is in high demand as a speaker, with his presentations to numerous forums, including the USA’s World Clinics, being the keynote. JULIE ZANCANARO A Paediatric Occupational Therapist, Julie is the Director of Hills Swimming and a widely published author in the area of infant aquatics. Julie has presented at numerous national conferences - both in Australia and New Zealand - and several World Aquatic Babies Conferences. She is always a highlight, bringing forward cutting-edge information in a stimulating manner.

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.
