It was here that Liz met Graham and was introduced to swimming and water polo, with Graham competing in the 1956 Melbourne and 1960 Rome Olympics. Following university Graham took an apprenticeship with Standard Triumph Motors resulting in a move to Coventry. Liz became involved in both the swimming and water polo communities initially through Graham and continuing with their children, Gareth and Kate both of whom are accomplished swimmers in their own rights. While Graham was playing water polo Liz would wash all the caps and make the sandwiches for the team. Once Gareth and Kate joined City of Coventry Liz began to involve herself in the clubs’ activities, taking on a number of roles including social secretary, fundraising, team manager and announcer and is currently the club Chairperson. Liz also announced at a number of events held in Coventry alongside Jane Nickerson. At one event Gareth and Kate were swimming in, the organiser asked Liz to step in as announcer as they had not got anyone to do the role. This was at the same time as doing all of the recording as well. One of Liz’s proudest moments was when she was announcing at a nationals championship where Gareth had won and Graham was presenting the medals – a unique situation! Liz’s involvement in swimming ran through from club level to regional as well as nationally and internationally. She was the swimming secretary for the West Midlands from the inception of the region until last year and organised all of their championships. Through the 1990’s Liz was the Chairperson of the national events committee which organised all of the big events. Liz has been a regional delegate at Council for a number of years and was surprised and honoured to be asked to become President.
