We are proud and excited to be the new principal sponsor of Swimming Australia and the EnergyAustralia Swim Team and to have the opportunity to support all Australian swimmers, whether competing locally or representing their country.

We are one of Australia’s largest integrated energy retailers and generators, providing gas and electricity to over 2.8 million customers across Eastern Australia.

Our focus on energy is what excites us about this partnership. Through the swimmers, we get to experience a different type of energy – the power and determination of world-class swimmers and the energy and passion of the crowds supporting them.

This was certainly evident in our first event as a partner, the 2012 EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships in . We were amongst the record crowds as they fare-welled several swimming legends and welcomed some young talent to the team.

We are proud to sponsor the EnergyAustralia Swimmer of the Year Awards and to support Swimming Australia’s junior development programs, JX and YPS. We also look forward to working closely with Swimming Australia and their stakeholders through the EnergyAustralia GO Swim program, a great initiative helping to develop tomorrow’s champions through club swimming.

I look forward to partnering with Swimming Australia in seeking out opportunities to support all Australian swimmers in achieving their goals, as well as developing future champions through local swimming programs.

4 Swimming Australia FORWARD FROM THE MINISTER

I would like to congratulate Swimming Australia on another successful year.

An Olympic and Paralympic year is always an exciting time for our athletes as they fine tune their preparations for the world’s biggest sporting event. I was lucky enough to attend the Olympic trials in Adelaide this year and witness first-hand the strength and depth of our Australian swimming team.

Seeing the depth in Adelaide that night it is no wonder that swimming is our most successful Olympic sport providing 58 of Australia’s 135 Olympic gold and 101 of our 325 Paralympic gold medals. The FINA World Championships in Shanghai in July 2011 was a fantastic preview for London with Australia winning two gold, nine silver and three bronze medals.

James Magnussen was the standout performer winning the 100m freestyle as well as leading off the victorious men’s 4 x 100m freestyle relay team with teammates , Matt Abood and .

Our Paralympic athletes also excelled at the 2011 Para Pan Pacific Championship in Canada, with (six gold), (five gold), (five gold) and (four gold) leading the charge.

The Australian Government is a strong supporter of Swimming Australia investing over $11.7 million to support our elite swimmers and encourage participation across the community.

Increasing participation levels of all Australians is a priority for Government and Swimming Australia is to be commended for the steps taken to increase participation among a diverse range of population groups. In particular the GO Club Inclusive Club Standard program is a wonderful initiative in this area.

Swimming holds a special place in the hearts of all Australians. I wish you all the best in London and look forward to many more memorable moments being made in the pool. Congratulations once again.

Senator the Honourable Kate Lundy Minister for Sport

Annual Report 2011 - 12 5 PRESIDENT’S REPORT

This year Swimming Australia took a fresh approach and new start, launching its new strategic plan 2011–2016 as a framework for the future. This plan will act as a blueprint for the coming quadrennial, with the focus to be the world’s leading swimming nation. Pleasingly, the plan’s ability to act as a compass is already showing in spades and we look forward to continuing to deliver on the plan.

Several new key partnerships were announced in 2011–12. Swimming Australia welcomed new sponsor EnergyAustralia and we are delighted to have their support until 2016. The bright new face of EnergyAustralia will prove invaluable in moving forward to the next exciting chapter of swimming in this country.

The EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships was the most successful Australian championships in recent history, being held in the state-of-the-art SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre in Adelaide. Yellow illuminated the pool and there were some outstanding performances from young and old alike.

Qualifying for the Olympics and Paralympics is always challenging, exciting and heartbreaking, but a thrill for all nonetheless. With several swimming greats returning to the pool, all eyes were on Adelaide to see who would represent Australia in London. The competition was outstanding and we will send two strong teams to the Olympics and Paralympics, notably very solid relay and individual prospects with , , Blake Cochrane, and Matthew Cowdrey, who is on target to become Australia’s greatest Paralympian. Good luck to all!

Other exciting opportunities have presented themselves this year, with the announcement of a new partnership with BHP Billiton and a brand new event — the Aquatic Super Series. This new initiative, which includes international swimming competition with our top-level athletes on our own soil, will see greater promotion and projection of swimming in this country, as well as community projects to complement and encourage the sport in more remote communities.

I wish to thank the Board for their guidance and support throughout the year. Swimming Australia is fortunate to welcome new Directors Tom Picton-Warlow (WA), Peter Lozan (NSW) and Mark Arbib (appointed) to the ranks, and the Board’s work throughout the year on the strategic plan will stand Swimming Australia in good stead in the future.

My thanks go to the staff who work tirelessly behind the scenes to provide industry leading events, team logistics, and grassroots programs that continually develop and keep swimming moving in a positive direction. I particularly wish to acknowledge the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Kevin Neil, who continues to deliver during challenging times and provides new opportunities for the sport.

Swimming is very well placed as a sport moving into the next quadrennial, and we wait with anticipation to see the fruits of our labour at the Olympics and Paralympics, and see our next generation of stars shine bright in London.

David Urquhart President

6 Swimming Australia CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REPORT

After another exciting and challenging 12 months, first and foremost I wish to recognise the Swimming Australia staff who are the cornerstone of the organisation and should be congratulated for another outstanding year. The dedication and commitment of the dynamic and talented staff is second to none, and the sport is fortunate to have these individuals working tirelessly across all levels and areas within the organisation.

I thank the Board for their guidance throughout the year, particularly in the development of the strategic plan, the new compass for the organisation. In particular to President David Urquhart, whose unwavering support and positivity is greatly appreciated and welcomed by the staff.

There have been some critical developments in the Paralympic area this year, with the opening of the elite Para- lympic program at the University of the Sunshine Coast. The program still in its infancy and is already showing results, not only in the pool, but in keeping athletes in the sport by providing another opportunity for elite develop- ment.

At the EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships in March, all athletes in the program achieved Priority 1 selec- tion onto the Paralympic Swim Team, and 12 world top-three times were swum. Additionally, five out of the six swimmers achieved lifetime personal best times in their targeted event.

There has been a significant increase in the level of collaboration among Swimming Australia and the states, and I thank the stakeholders wholeheartedly for their cooperation and positivity. Important forward steps are being taken within the sport, and the states should be commended for their substantial contribution.

The diminishing pool space available for squad swimming and the rising cost of lane hire is a critical risk for the sport at all levels, and the continued work of the Aquatic Strategy unit in providing support for clubs and states to keep swimming at the forefront of pool facilities and venues has been invaluable. Swimming Australia will continue to work hard in this area and provide support to clubs and information to councils about requirements to enable access to pool space.

Commercial and Communications

The Swimming Australia Commercial and Communications Unit including marketing and media saw the addition of Kathleen Rayment as a Media and Public Relations Coordinator in September, while Rachael Roberts went on maternity leave in January.

The New Year saw Lachlan Searle act as the General Manager, Commercial and Communications and maintain his Media Manager role, while the announcement of the BHP Billiton Aquatic Super Series to be held in Perth from 2013-2015 with Swimming Australia managing the event, also saw the inclusion of two new staff in Stuart Gilsenan as the Event Project Manager and Teagan Wilkie as the Community Engagement Manager to be based in Perth.

Jessica Gilbert and Dean Norbiato continued to work on the sponsorship and marketing side of the business, with Dean leaving Swimming Australia after five years to take up a role with Swisse Vitamins post the EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships in April.

Katherine Ginbey continued to excel in her role as Events and Marketing Manager, while Ben Carter, Caitlin Walsh, Liz Avery and Ted Chatain were all heavily involved in the event operations and marketing side of the organisation. All staff should be congratulated on an outstanding year including the most successful EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships in many years with seven of the eight night’s sold out as a result of a fantastic ‘London Calling’ marketing campaign, and strong broadcast ratings on Ten and One through our broadcast partner Network Ten.

Annual Report 2011 - 12 7 The 2011-12 year saw a string of successful events for Swimming Australia, some outstanding perofrmances on the world stage in the pool and the announcement of the new major sponsor for the next five years in EnergyAustralia.

Starting the year with the Australian Short Course Championships in Adelaide, in front of full houses for finals at the new SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre, the EnergyAustralia Swim Team then went on to the FINA World Championships in Shanghai to win two gold medals, eight silver and three bronze with James Magnussen and the men’s 4x100m freestyle relay team crowned world champions.

November saw the return of and to international competition at the FINA World Cups with all major Australian television networks covering the comebacks, and unprecedented media interest for the sport.

In December, James Magnussen was crowned 2011 Swimmer of the Year at a hugely successful gala event in , while the New Year brought with increased interest in the sport leading up to Trials.

As it was an Olympic year, it was vital for Swimming Australia to use the highest quality broadcast options to en- sure maximum audience reach and engagement across all mediums.

The 2012 EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships saw a record number of 834 athletes compete for Olympic and Paralympic nomination at the SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre in Adelaide from 15-22 March. Record crowds, fantastic support from the local, national and international media totalling more than 100, and strong broadcast figures made for a fantastic eight days of racing and entertainment.

In April, more than 1600 competitors travelled to the Sleeman Sports Complex in for the 2012 Australian Age Swimming Championships with teams selected for the Junior Pan Pacs and Trans Tasman tours, while in May Swimming Australia was pleased to become one of 12 sporting organisations taking part in a government initiative to provide an alternative to alcohol sponsorship in sport.

From a media perspective, the renewed interest in the sport from television, radio and print media came as a result of senior athletes making a comeback including Ian Thorpe, Libby Trickett and . James Magnussen was also positioned as a swimmer to watch leading into London and of course the lead up to Olympic and selection.

The increased push towards social and digital media also continues to help promote the sport to a younger audience, with Swimming Australia to invest further in this area in the years to come, and capitalise on already strong engagement through the web, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.

Swimming Australia would like to thank the Australian media and in particular Network Ten for their support in helping to promote the sport of swimming and we look forward to more great stories and memorable racing in the years ahead.

8 Swimming Australia Events

2011 Australian Short Course Championships SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre Friday 1 - Sunday 3 July 2011

The 2011 Australian Short Course Championships were held at the SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre. This was the first broadcast and open meet to be held at the newly build facility.

No major international teams were selected from this event so a shorter event format was trialled, running over three days instead of five. Feedback received from coaches and athletes was positive and has resulted in this format now being used during non-selection years.

Swimming Australia again partnered with Channel Ten’s One HD to offer a live broadcast of the finals sessions over the three days of competition.

During the three days of the championships, the following records were broken:

• One Australian All Comers Record • 18 Multi Class World Records

The HB Ive Trophy for the Premiership State was awarded to Queensland and the JF Howson Trophy for the Premiership club was claimed by Vicentre (VIC).

A total of 1128 accreditation passes were issued for the event, with 171 club packages were purchased.

487 athletes from 147 clubs competed over the three competition days, with 1790 individual entries and 64 relay entries being registered for the event.

2011 State Teams Short Course Championships Australian Institute of Sport, , ACT Saturday 17 - Monday 19 September 2011

In its third year the 2011 State Teams Short Course Swimming Championships continues to be a success with states, coaches and athletes. The unique team format, continued to produce some excellent performances from Australia’s future swimming stars, with many meet record tumbling.

Interstate rivalry made for a great team atmosphere. Each state and territory in Australia again participated with teams selected independently by state associations to represent them. Queensland came out as victors for the second year running, with New South Wales coming in second place.

10 Swimming Australia 2012 Australian Open Water Swimming Championships Champion Lakes Regatta Centre, Perth, WA Friday 16 - Sunday 18 February 2012

The 2012 Australian Open Water Swimming Championships were held at Champion Lakes Regatta Centre, Perth from Friday 16-Sunday 18 February 2012. This was the first time Champion Lakes has been used to host a Swimming Australia event and it proved to be a good facility for open water swimming.

The use of a Regatta Centre again proved of benefit with ease of access for athletes and the familiarity of a more controlled swimming environment. The course layout of a 2.5km loop mirrored those of previous years with the introduction of a 100m length pontoon for improved feeding capacity for coaches and team manag- ers.

A 2.5km event was added to the program for 2012. This non-championship event was open to JX swimmers who used the opportunity to get in and have a go at open water swimming. The event was packaged with a clinic run by National Open Water Coach, Greg Towle.

A total of 421 athletes from 123 clubs provided 528 individual entries for the event. This included 52 entries for the inaugural JX open water clinic and swim. This was the highest number of entries ever received.

2012 EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre, Adelaide, SA Thursday 15 - Thursday 22 March 2012.

The 2012 EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships were conducted at the SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre (SAALC), from Thursday 15-Thursday 22 March 2012. The event was the selection trials for the swimming section of the Australian Olympic Team to attend the 2012 London Olympic Games.

With such high expectations associated with being an Olympic year, the 2012 EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships did not disappoint. The men’s 100m freestyle saw James Magnussen record the fastest ever time in a textile suit, while continued his rapid improvement to record the 2nd fastest time in the event this year. Chris Wright (100m Butterfly) and Stephanie Rice (200m IM) also announced themselves as serious contenders for London after posting the fastest times in the world for their respective events.

With the event also incorporating the selection trials for the 2012 London Paralympic Games, the multi-class athletes provided some incredible performances to see 25 multi-class world records tumble over the eight days. Tim Antalfy, Matthew Cowdrey, , , Daniel Fox, , , Brendan Hall, and Blake Cochrane all set new world marks at the event.

During the eight days of the championships, the following records were broken: • 2 Australian Records • 2 All comers Records • 16 Australian Age Records • 13 Age All comers Records • 25 Multi-Disability World Records • 83 Multi-Disability Australian Records • 97 Multi-Disability Australian Age Records

The records were not just confined to the pool with a record number of 834 athletes from 221 clubs register- ing 2733 individual entries and 65 relay entries for the championships. This makes the 2012 EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships the biggest Australian Swimming Championships on record. A total of 1924

Annual Report 2011 - 12 11 accreditation passes were issued for this event, with 446 club packages being purchased. The event also sold out seven out of eight finals sessions and is reported to be the largest attendance at the swimming since 2000.

The event grabbed the focus of the nation and even the world, with over 100 media being accredited including foreign media representatives from the United Kingdom, Brazil and Al Jazeera. Network Ten reported outstand- ing ratings on Channel Ten, and unprecedented ratings on One HD. It was also noted that the number of viewers changing channels to follow the broadcast at the end of the Channel Ten hour was exceptionally high.

2012 Australian Age Swimming Championships Chandler Aquatic Centre, Brisbane QLD Monday 9 - Saturday 14 April

The 2012 Australian Age Swimming Championships were held at the Brisbane Aquatic Centre from Monday 9 to Saturday 14 April 2012. The event saw a record number of entries from Australian Age group swimmers and was the first event to be held at the venue with the inclusion of the newly constructed 50m outdoor pool.

The event proved to be extremely successful with over 18,000 spectators and over 2000 athletes and support staff attending over the six days. The introduction of the brand new outdoor pool provided additional training space and more room to move around pool deck.

During the six days of the championships, the following records were broken: • 11 Australian Age Records • 9 Age All comers Records

The W B Phillips trophy for the Premiership State was awarded to Queensland and the W J Harrison trophy for the Premiership club was claimed by Melbourne Vicentre (VIC).

Other event support Throughout the year, the Commercial and Communications unit also contributed to the Australian University Games.

Thank you to all Swimming Australia staff, volunteers, technical officials, athletes, coaches, support staff, sponsors, contractors, venues and supporters for making 2011–12 a very successful year of events.

12 Swimming Australia High Performance Unit

Following the adoption of a new strategic plan in early 2012, Performance became one of three pillars of Swimming Australia, resulting in a minor change to position titles. The role of National Youth Coach, ably filled by Vince Raleigh, was renamed High Performance Youth Coach, and Bernard Savage’s position of Performance Science Manager was renamed High Performance Science Manager. The adoption of the new strategic plan also embedded the high performance plan adopted 12 months earlier. This enabled the unit to focus its resources on the key areas identified to best achieve the organisation’s outcome.

After two years with Swimming Australia, Alice Bowen, the inaugural Athlete Wellbeing Officer, resigned to pursue other interests. The wellbeing of our athletes is a key component of the strategic plan, and Alice has left a strong framework in place for this important work to continue.

Another key aspect of the strategic plan is the investment in Centres of Excellence. In 2011, Swimming Australia welcomed the Gold Coast Regional Aquatic Centre and Southport Swimming Club as its latest centre of excellence and increased the total investment to each centre to $30,000. Southport joined existing centres Nunawading Swimming Club, Melbourne Vicentre, Sydney Olympic Park, St Joseph’s College in Nudgee, Chandler Aquatic Centre, Miami Swimming Club, and St Peters Lutheran College in Indooroopilly. These centres, along with the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra, play a key role in ensuring we are able to place our best swimmers with our best coaches in the best possible environment. Following the selection of the 2012 Australian Swim Team, it emerged that more than 75 per cent of the team came from these nine centres.

During 2011, we also realised an exciting partnership with the University of the Sunshine Coast (USC), the Australian Paralympic Committee and the Australian Institute of Sport in establishing a residential high performance program for Paralympic swimmers. This program, based at the USC’s Buderim campus, allows for high quality training, research and study to take place in a single location. Special thanks must be extended to Professor Brendan Burkett from the USC, himself a decorated Paralympic swimmer, for helping us to establish this wonderful program.

Aligned with our support for optimising the environment, Swimming Australia also invested heavily in supporting and retaining our best coaches. This result was achieved in some way through the Coach Retention Program, with international results going back eight years combined and ‘top 10‘ coaches identified. This group was allocated $350,000 to help them achieve a greater focus on coaching high performing swimmers every day. Using eight years of data acknowledges the ebbs and flows that coaches have in developing elite international swimmers.

Following the world championships, and in keeping with its high performance plan, Swimming Australia continued its program of allocating funds to targeted swimmers in an attempt to assist them to reach the podium at the Olympic Games. This support was used in a variety of ways, with the key being that it was individualised and planned in consultation with an athlete’s coach and the National Head Coach. Throughout the year, 43 swimmers benefited from more than $500,000 to support their specific training, competition, recovery and rehabilitation needs. We believe that this support, combined with a total investment of $900,000 in the network of state institutes of sport/state academies of sport (SIS/SAS) has contributed to a healthier and fitter group of athletes heading towards London.

The SIS/SAS continue to be a key partner of Swimming Australia in the execution of our goal. We are indebted to them for their immense support of swimmers and coaches throughout Australia. In 2011 Swimming Australia was for the first time able to invest directly in the SIS/SAS network to support Paralympic-standard athletes and coaches in their preparation for the London Paralympics.

The two major championship events for 2011 were the FINA World Championships held in Shanghai, China, in July and the Para Pan Pacs held in , Canada, in August. Our Australian teams, under the leadership of National Head Coach Leigh Nugent and Paralympic Head Coach , both performed well.

Annual Report 2011 - 12 13 In Shanghai James Magnussen rocketed onto the world stage, winning Australia’s only individual gold medal of the championships. Australia’s proud tradition in relay events continued with a combined haul of one gold, two silver and one bronze out of a possible six medals, with James and team-mates Matthew Targett, Eamon Sullivan and Matthew Abood becoming world champions in the 4 x 100 metre freestyle relay.

Alicia Coutts, Belinda Hocking, Matthew Targett, Kylie Palmer and Leisel Jones won individual silver medals, while Stephanie Rice and Geoffrey Huegill each won a bronze medal.

The world championships were also where Australia’s first two 2012 Olympians, Melissa Gorman and Ky Hurst, were selected by virtue of their 4th and 5th placings respectively in the 10-kilometre open water championship event.

Australia dominated at the inaugural Para Pan Pacs, with Ellie Cole (six gold), Kayla Clarke (five gold), Blake Cochrane (five gold) and Matthew Cowdrey (four gold) being the standouts. The event provided valuable experience for a number of young athletes such as Kayla, Regan Wickens and leading into the London 2012 Paralympic Games.

Shortly after the world championships, a strong team of 24 swimmers returned to China in August 2011 for the World University Games. David McKeon was the standout individual performer for the Australian team, winning the 400-metre freestyle. David’s victory was particularly special as this was the same event that his father and coach, Ron, won at the 1986 World University Games. The Australian 4 x 100 metre freestyle relay team also collected a gold medal. Australia finished with its most successful medal haul at a World University Games of two gold, one silver and five bronze.

At the same time as the World University Games, a small team of youth athletes were competing at the Junior World Games in Lima, Peru. The young Australian team acquitted itself well and returned home with a number of medals and personal best performances. The trip to this part of the world was special given that all team members will be vying for a place on the team for the Rio de Janeiro 2016 Olympic Games. Community Sport

Swimming Australia continued its focus on growing the sport in partnership with stakeholders, commercial partners and government. A significant step in this process was the drafting of the Community Swimming Plan, which will provide the foundation for the future growth of swimming.

All new members of the sport who are under 12 years of age receive a welcome kit when they join a club. Almost 21,000 EnergyAustralia GO Swim new member kits were distributed in the last 12 months by state associations. With the support of the Australian Sports Commission, Swimming Australia funded a number of programs implemented by state swimming associations that aim to increase participation in targeted populations, including people with disability, women, Indigenous and people from non-English speaking backgrounds. The participation of people with disability has been led by the draft of a National Disability Inclusion Framework. Additionally, Swimming Australia has delivered successful Indigenous programs throughout central Australia and the gulf of Queensland.

Swimming Australia and its stakeholders have agreed in principle to the implementation of a national registration date which will pave the way for further sustained growth in membership.

The JX program is in its sixth year of operation. This program gives children aged nine to 13 years times and goals to strive for and the ability to compare their performances on a national scale without leaving their district. Swimming Australia, in conjunction with state and territory swimming associations, is proud to nationally recognise more than 12,000 JX awardees in 2011–12.

The Youth Performance Squad has recognised over 2400 swimmers aged 13–18 years for their performance, which is an increase of 15 per cent from 2010–12. The Youth Performance Squad program takes over where JX finishes, and provides more of a focus on taking the next step towards high performance swimming. Congratulations to all swimmers who qualified for these programs.

14 Swimming Australia The Inclusive Club Standard, which provides clubs with information on their capacity to deliver programs for people with disability, was launched in 2012. The inaugural year saw 140 clubs voluntarily participate and be recognised. Administrators from these clubs will now have the capacity to effect change and improve on their ability to implement inclusive club practices.

GO Club, the national club development program, has 330 clubs and continues to build awareness of the importance of club structures, and to assist clubs in providing a solid supportive environment for all members. Nineteen clubs attained the gold-level standard, with eight clubs reaching a newly developed platinum level. The GO CLUB administration resources have been utilised in forums to educate swimming clubs and club personnel to improve performance and management structures, providing a better environment for all Swimming Australia members. More than 40 GO CLUB forums and 30 GO CLUB Come and Try events were conducted and have assisted in promoting the sport of swimming and attracting new members.

The Swimming Club Assistance Fund provided $100,000 worth of much-needed equipment to 58 swimming clubs across Australia.

In 2012, Swimming Australia introduced the volunteer recognition program, Local Legends. This has enabled Swimming Australia and its stakeholders to reward volunteers who are contributing to and running the sport at the grassroots level. Over 400 volunteers have been recognised and are in the running for Volunteer of the Year, to be announced at the EnergyAustralia Swimmer of the Year Awards on 24 November 2012.

With the direction and advice of the Technical Management Advisory Committee, the National Officiating Program has continued to go from strength to strength. There are now over 5,000 accredited officials assisting with the running of meets across the country. Matthew Bromley is the 2012 scholarship holder and is excelling under mentor John Keppie.

Swimming Australia, with assistance from the Australian Sports Commission and state associations, ran an officiating workshop in September for a number of developing officials and mentors in conjunction with the State Teams Short Course event in Canberra.

The 2012 Australian Age Championships was John Keppie’s last in the position of Technical Manager. Swimming Australia is grateful to him for the many years of dedicated service to national meets and the development of officials across Australia. Swimming Australia is pleased to announce that after a comprehensive selection process, Robert Gregg from Tasmania will now take on the position with the support of Pool Assistant Technical Manger Karen Macleod (QLD) and Open Water Swimming Assistant Technical Manager Bill Ford (NSW).

Swimming Australia has worked more closely with its constituents to grow and align the value of the sport through the formation of the Stakeholder Working Alignment Group. The group has explored commercial and sponsorship alignment, and we thank those members for their contribution.

Draft partnership agreements between Swimming Australia and stakeholders are now in circulation with the aim of clarifying roles and responsibilities to better service the sport.

The 2011-12 year saw an extensive review into IT services and a subsequent transformation project. The review has provided a platform for renegotiations, refinement of the commercial model and system improvements. The ongoing transformation project with the support of the ASC and being led by consultancy Marketworthy, will allow Swimming Australia to transform their current ICT infrastructure and capability with a view to realise broader strategic objectives and achieve world’s leading practice in technologies relating to the sport of swimming.

Annual Report 2011 - 12 15 Aquatic Strategy

Swimming Australia continues to engage with many sectors of the aquatic industry in regard to the water space needs of the sport. The emphasis is on building relationships throughout the industry and with government, and to deliver key mes- sages about the benefits of swimming programs and swimming clubs. In 2011–12, an aquatic strategy was adopted that encompasses four key phases — increasing awareness, industry engagement, seeking to influence owners, and building partnerships.

Increasing awareness has included conducting research on aquatic facility ownership and management methods across Australia, and presenting information to stakeholders on the trends and issues affecting competition swimming. A number of industry journals published articles in the last year reflecting on Swimming Australia’s response to pressures within aquatic centre operations. Information was also presented to demonstrate the contribution that competition swimming plays in the growth of aquatic facilities throughout Australia.

In seeking to influence facility owners and operators, Swimming Australia has developed comparative data on facility performance and the factors that contribute to that performance. The data reflects the economic and social measures of aquatic facilities. Becoming a stronger representative voice for the sport’s needs has been crucial for all clubs in the current economic environment where financial pressures are increasing. A range of case studies and template agreements have been used to influence decisions.

The process of industry engagement has involved discussions with all levels of government. In the last 12 months, Swim- ming Australia has had a more inclusive role in facility planning which has ensured that pool design considers competi- tion and training needs. We have also been able to provide feedback to councils on facility management and contracting processes that have been taking place across Australia.

Swimming Australia is currently working towards new partnerships with universities, local government and private providers. There are exciting opportunities opening up in this space and in the next 12 months we are hoping to be able to announce new partnerships.

Australian Government

Swimming Australia has continued to receive strong support from the Australia Government. We have continued to strengthen our relationship with the Australian Sports Commission with new Chief Executive Officer Simon Hollingsworth. The support afforded to Swimming Australia through the Australian Institute of Sport and their new Director Matt Favier has been invaluable to the success of new developments and initiatives. This financial support and guidance has enabled us to deliver sport-leading programs.

Swimming Australia has also enjoyed support for health and education initiatives, like Club Champions and Illicit Drugs in Sport programs through support from the Department of Health and Ageing. Support from the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet of the Swimming Australia Indigenous program has continued, enabling the delivery of aquatic opportunities for remote indigenous populations.

16 Swimming Australia Conclusion

Looking onwards and upwards to London, under the guidance and leadership of Leah Nugent, the Australian Swim Team is well placed to achieve great things. While every year throws new challenges our way, I believe the increased support of many new programs ensures Swimming Australia is well placed to handle these and come out the other side stronger and more resilient than ever.

The members of the Swimming Australia Board, led by President David Urquhart, should be recognised for their diligence and dedication to improving the sport at all levels. Through the lengthy governance review process, the determination and persistence of the Board to remain on track and continue to strive for the best governance model should be commended. Swimming Australia will continue in its endeavours to ensure that Australia is the best swimming nation in the world, and also to create a sport for all. For this, acknowledgment must go to all athletes, coaches, volunteers, supporters and, specifically, the Swimming Australia staff who are a pleasure to work with every day.

VALE

During the 2011–12 year, Swimming Australia and its stakeholders lost members who have contributed immeasurably to the sport. Particularly sad was the loss of life member Arch Steinbeck, 1964 Olympian Peter Reynolds, Swimming Victoria life member Edna Olsen and Australian swimming legend .

The sympathy of Swimming Australia goes to the families and friends of those who passed away during the past 12 months.

Annual Report 2011 - 12 17 From The Stakeholders Australian Swimming Coaches and Teachers Association

With 40 years of operation now behind us, ASCTA has used the 2011-12 period to consolidate many of its prac- tices in preparation for a 2012-13 that should see its services and products for Members and contributions to both the sport of swimming and the teaching of swimming and water safety industry grow significantly.

The Association’s core endeavours have been addressed strongly: teacher and coach accreditation and the on-going professional development of same. Similarly, the engagement through ASCTA’s Swim Australia of the vital swim school network goes from strength to strength. For teachers, coaches and swim schools new services and products have been rolled out and existing ones enhanced.

In all of this, strong relationships with Swimming Australia and the State Swimming Associations are paramount for maximising opportunities and best delivering on what is needed. I am happy to report that ASCTA feels that its role and potential in the SAL-Stakeholder group has never been better understood and appreciated. We are committed to enhancing this even further for the greater good. To this end, ASCTA looks forward to completing the Partnership Agreement process.

By the time this Report is released the Olympics and Paralympics will have been ‘run and won’. No doubt there will be triumphs and tribulations. Congratulations where due and, as always, the experiences need to be learnt from in order to build an even better platform for the coming Olympiad. Similar acknowledgement to the athletes, coaches, support staff and management that were part of, or contributed to, the numerous other Australian teams and camps during the past year.

I wish to express my appreciation to our Board of Directors, the ASCTA Branches and our hard-working staff. Finally, I wish to thank our Chief Executive Officer Ross Gage for his outstanding work ethic and his commitment to our sport and industry.

ASCTA joins with Swimming Australia and its other Stakeholders in celebrating the successes of 2011-12 and committing to a 2012-13 to be proud of.

18 Swimming Australia Australian Swimmers’ Association

The 2011-2012 financial year has been a period of consolidation for the Australian Swimmer’s Association (ASA). An agreement between the ASA and Swimming Australia saw a total of $1.5 million be dispersed amongst the top 81 swimmers in the nation. Following a restructure at the end of 2010 the association’s key positions of General Manager and Executive Chairman were now into their second year of employment. Armed with a greater under- standing of the situation, the association executive took to the challenge of growing the membership, reconnect- ing with past swimmers and forming stronger relationships with Swimming Australia and the other stakeholder groups.

The ASA followed Swimming Australia’s lead by reviewing its strategic plan to better serve the association’s members and the sport. In November 2011 the launch of the extended pathways program was held in Melbourne. This program aimed to help swimmers without access to state institutes or academies to investigate possible ca- reer paths beyond the pool. The association has endeavoured to improve the communication network to include age group swimmers and their families.

In late February 2012 the association opened negotiations with Swimming Australia hoping to create a long term agreement towards the 2016 Olympics in Rio. Negotiations continued over the following months including a pres- entation to the Swimming Australia board on the 23rd of June, with a model that the ASA believed would help Swimming Australia reach its strategic vision for 2011-2016 “…to be the world’s leading swimming nation”. Unfortunately the ASA and Swimming Australia were unable to reach an agreement at the end of the 2011-12 financial year.

At the association’s Annual General Meeting in November 2011, three executive members stood down due to other commitments. On behalf of the association I would like to thank David Browne and Tarnee White for their passionate work. Special mention must be made of Mark Riley who worked tirelessly as the leader of the asso- ciation’s governance. We wish them every success in their future endeavours and thank them sincerely for their time and effort. The association was extremely happy to welcome our new executive members in , Josh Watson and Melissa Gorman. Another structural change occurred with Marieke Guehrer being elected to Vice President after Libby Trickett stood down from the role.

Brenton Rickard ASA President

Annual Report 2011 - 12 19 Swimming New South Wales

In 2011–12, Swimming New South Wales (NSW) achieved a number of its strategic and operational objectives. The Board provided strong strategic leadership flowing through to the operational plan, which in turn set the projects and goals of the office staff. During the year we finalised our strategic plan for 2012–16 with the vision to be the premier swimming state in Australia. In line with the Swimming Australia strategic plan, we adopted three strategic priorities as the pillars by which our sport is developed and promoted — participation, performance and partnerships.

In partnership with ASCTA NSW, Swimming NSW developed and launched the SNSW Coach Development Framework. This framework is aimed at placing an increased focus on, and delivery of resources to our coaches to provide them with further development opportunities that will drive the performance of our athletes.

Financially, Swimming NSW is in an extremely stable and envious position. Even though we have been forced to operate with slight budget deficits in the past few years, it is the Board’s intention that during the 2012-13 financial year Swimming NSW will operate within a balanced budget.

New South Wales athletes continued to improve at both open and age levels, achieving some excellent results at the national open and age championships. Twelve NSW-based athletes attended the 2011 World Championships in Shanghai, where they won two gold medals, one silver and one bronze. At the National State Teams Short Course Championships held at the Australian Institute of Sport in September, our age group swimmers pushed the Queens- land team right to the end of the three-day meet, which was pleasing to see. We are also very proud that nine NSW swimmers won positions on the Australian Swim Team for the London Olympic Games, with a strong possibility that this number will grow to ten. Congratulations to all these fine young athletes for achieving the status of becoming Olympians.

Another key area of focus this year was to provide an increased level of service to our grassroots members through our development officer network. We now have a total of six staff in the area of sport development, and in consulta- tion with each of their areas, our development officers have conducted a record number of development days this year. In all, over 60 development days were held during the year, with almost 3000 swimmers in attendance. With the assistance of the Australian Swimmers’ Association, we were able to provide 30 elite athlete appearances to attend many of these days. These fantastic results have aided significantly in developing our sport from the grassroots level, which will ultimately drive performance at higher levels.

Our events continue to be the showcase for our sport, and in 2011-12 Swimming NSW introduced a number of new initiatives to enhance the experience for all stakeholders when they attend our meets. The introduction of online ticketing and merchandise for all events has proved very effective in reducing the congestion, especially at the com- mencement of meets. The Competitions Committee and event staff continued to work hard to ensure that our events remain innovative and at the forefront of swimming events in Australia.

There will be more challenges in the coming 12 months, but we believe that Swimming NSW has the capability and commitment to overcome them and once again display to the rest of Australia what a great organisation we have.

Patrick Troy Mark Heathcote President Chief Executive Officer

20 Swimming Australia Swimming Northern Territory

In 2011-12, Swimming Northern Territory (NT) once again met the challenges of high staff and volunteer turnover that is inherent in the Northern Territory, while still managing to deliver an increased range of services, programs and activities as identified in the three pillars of the 2011-2016 Swimming Australia strategic plan — partner- ships, performance and participation.

Sponsorship remained at a very good level, with long-term relationships in place with leading national and regional companies including Vorgee, Gatorade, McDonald’s, PowerWater, Bodyfit, Daz-l and Canterbury.

Swimming NT continued to develop sound relationships across all levels of government. Significant funding was provided by the Department of Regional Australia, Local Government, Arts and Sport for the Indigenous Sport and Active Recreation Program that reaches over 1300 participants per annum from as far south west as Kintore to Yirrkala in the north east. The Territory government was a major contributor through the Peak Sporting Bodies Program and generous accommodation at Sports House. We also delivered the Bush Schools Swimming and Life- style Clinic in Alice Springs in partnership with Swimming Australia through funding provided by the Department of Natural Resources, Environment, the Arts and Sport. Our relationships with local councils in Darwin, Palmerston and Alice Springs also developed positively as we discussed the long-term vision for aquatic facilities in these regions.

While Territory representative team numbers were down on previous years at Australian Age and Australian Open Championships, a considerable effort was put into identifying solutions and ultimately implementing the Swim- ming NT academy program to enhance the pathway to swimming at the top level in the Northern Territory. While still evolving, there is now strong support for swimmers in Tier 1 and the next level, and recognition of the holistic benefits of the sport through programs for swimmers identified in the senior swimmers and leadership groups. We were delighted to host the inaugural NT Short Course Championships in August 2011 at the new Alice Springs Aquatic & Leisure Centre, which was officially opened on Sunday 17 April. The facility was used again to host the 2012 Short Course Championships in May, with an encouraging increase in competing swimmers.

The recognised importance of quality coaching continued to be addressed through a variety of coach education initiatives, including scholarship support for coaches to attend ASCTA conferences interstate (Victoria), strong rep- resentation at the ASCTA conference on the Gold Coast, and through the support of ASCTA itself with the delivery of the inaugural SwimNT Conference in June 2012, where Swimming Northern Territory provided subsidies to many of the participants to encourage maximum attendance. Growth in technical official accreditation remained steady after a major program through 2010-11.

Swimming NT significantly increased the variety of programs designed to increase participation, with many of these delivered by the Community Swimming Officer Paul Schindler. This role was increased from a 0.25 FTE in 2010–11 to a full-time role in the current financial year through support from Swimming Australia participation funding. The Community Swimming Officer developed strong linkages with school sport and provided clubs with much-needed coaching assistance, in particular standing in for head coaches during holiday periods. Despite our relationships and ongoing dialogue with NT local government, access to water space continues to be a threat and the lack of an all-weather facility in Darwin is an obstacle to many growth opportunities. The input from Swimming Australia through General Manager Aquatic Strategy Graeme Stephenson, was most appreciated in this area. Finally, after many years of declining membership numbers there was a slight increase in 2011-12 and with the ongoing efforts of our partners and those involved at all strata of the sport, we look forward to this trend continuing.

Annual Report 2011 - 12 21 Swimming Queensland

The selection of 31 Queensland swimmers and six Queensland coaches to the Australian Swim Team for the 2012 Olympics set a new milestone for swimming in this state, and well exceeded our previous best Olympic representation — 22 swimmers and six coaches in 2008.

At the 2011 World Championships in Shanghai, China, Alicia Coutts and Kylie Palmer both won individual silver medals, while Stephanie Rice claimed a bronze.

Queensland swimmers also performed strongly at the 2011 Para Pan Pacific Championships in Edmonton, Canada. Kayla Clarke and Blake Cochrane both won four gold medals, while Daniel Fox claimed three.

Bronte Campbell, Bonnie Macdonald and Cameron McEvoy continued their rapid ascent towards the top ranks of international swimmers by winning individual gold medals at the 2011 World Junior Championships in Lima, Peru. At the 2012 Australian Open Championships, 24 of our swimmers won a total of 35 individual gold medals, culmi- nating in Queensland repeating its performance from last year in winning both the Corbett Shield for the women’s competition, and the Kieran Shield for the men’s.

Queensland maintained its winning streak at the 2011 State Teams Short Course Championships. Queensland swimmers have won the championships every year since its inception in 2009.

Our up-and-coming swimmers excelled yet again at the 2012 Australian Age Championships. For the thirteenth year in a row, Queensland took out the WB Phillips trophy as the premier state.

Ten Queensland swimmers won gold medals at the 2012 Australian Age and Open Water Championships, with Queensland swimmers claiming a total of 28 medals.

New inductees into the Swimming Queensland Hall of Fame were Josh Santacaterina and Brendan Capell, both of whom were 25km Open Water World Champions, and legendary coaches Denis Cotterell and Ken Wood.

The major development activity conducted was a coach education tour to the 2011 World Championships. Seventeen Queensland coaches undertook the 12-day trip under the leadership of Swimming Queensland Mentor Coach, Scott Volkers.

Swimming Queensland’s highly successful Technical Official mentoring program was continued. It included sending a technical official with the Queensland team to the New Zealand Short Course Championships.

Following the success of the Growing Up In Lycra DVD produced by Swimming Queensland for young female swim- mers, their parents and coaches, work has begun on a DVD about male swimmers. It will feature several elite swim- mers, including and James Magnussen, and various experts on the development and coaching of the male athlete.

22 Swimming Australia Swimming South Australia

This past year has been a settling in period at our new home at the SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre, a world-class facility which opened in April 2011.

In March, South Australia hosted the EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships, which doubled as the Olympic selection trials. This event gave South Australians their first opportunity in 15 years to see the likes of Ian Thorpe, Libby Trickett, Michael Klim and Geoff Huegill swimming at a major meet in Adelaide.

Adelaide sold over 35,000 tickets to the meet and enjoyed a national television audience of over eight million, hence the event was a huge success and we thank Swimming Australia for bringing it to Adelaide. We look forward to hosting the 2013 Australian Age and Open Championships.

Swimming South Australia (SA) continued to see participation in the sport grow at the base level, with more than 500 swimmers being acknowledged as JX program recipients in the last year.

As well as an increase in the diversity of participants in the sport, South Australian athletes performed extremely well over the last 12 months, with increased numbers of participants at the 2012 Olympic Trials, 2012 Australian Age Championships and 2012 State Championships.

With a substantial increase in competitors at these events, we saw an improvement in the performance levels of athletes across groups.

It is pleasing to report we had a small increase in the number of registered officials. Volunteers at club, state, national and international levels are integral to our sport and we thank them for their efforts.

Swimming SA continued to build on its relationship with key stakeholders — EventsSA, SA Office for Recreation and Sport, South Australian Sports Institute, and the Department of Education School Sport Unit. Through these partnerships we were able to improve opportunities for our members across the state from regional scholarships to positions available on the state high school swimming team.

We recently received funding from the SA Office for Recreation and Sport to appoint a state coach. This is an exciting appointment which will help to further develop our club coaches and assist with talent identification.

Swimming SA would like to acknowledge the strong support of all of its partners, particularly Swimming Australia, and we look forward to the continued growth of the sport in South Australia in the coming year. Finally, in this London Olympic year, we congratulate the Australian Swim Team and wish them every success.

Annual Report 2011 - 12 23 Swimming Tasmania

The past year saw the most significant change in the operations of Swimming Tasmania for more than a decade.

In late 2011, we underwent an operational review led by Swimming Australia focusing on governance and leadership, community swimming, people development, high performance, and business development. The report to the Board of Swimming Tasmania outlined some recommendations, one of which was that Swimming Australia would undertake administrative functions on behalf of Swimming Tasmania.

The Board unequivocally agreed to proceed with that recommendation so as to best deliver goals and objectives for the growth, development and long-term sustainability of swimming in Tasmania. A partnership agreement was signed, with Swimming Tasmania remaining responsible for the governance of the sport and Swimming Australia undertaking the executive and management activities including coach education, club development, administration and marketing.

As a result of the changes we welcomed Jamie McIntyre back to the sport in the role of part-time Executive Officer. While he continued his role of Commercial Services Manager for Surf Life Saving Tasmania in a part-time capacity, he was engaged by Swimming Australia to manage the core activities of swimming in Tasmania with administrative support from Tara Alcorn in Canberra.

Alexandra Kingston was engaged as our Development Officer in August 2011 and is now reemployed as a Community Sport Coordinator under the new arrangement.

We said farewell to Mary Schiebel, who worked in our office for more than a decade. Mary’s dedication and commitment to the sport of swimming during this time will always be remembered and we wish her all the best in the future. During the transition period Mary will assist with event management.

We would like to acknowledge the support of our principal sponsor Fairbrother Pty Ltd and our other Tassie S4L members.

In November, we celebrated our centenary with a gala day in Launceston that included a swim meet, our awards presen- tations for 2010–11 and a cocktail party in the evening. The presence of Australian team swimmers Adam Pine, Marieke Guehrer and Grace Loh proved very successful.

In recognition of their services, 45 hard working officials, coaches and club administrators received Centennial Service Awards.

We would like to recognise the commitment and dedication of our small group of officials who give their time so freely. Swimming Tasmania would also like to acknowledge the support of all of its partners, particularly Swimming Australia, and under the new partnership we look forward to the growth and development of our sport in the coming year.

Susan Cure Jamie McIntyre President General Manager

24 Swimming Australia Swimming Victoria

The past year saw Swimming Victoria conduct fantastic events, highlighted by the 2012 Victorian Open Championships, and we hope to see many Australian Olympians return to compete in Victoria soon.

Swimming Victoria events attracted a number of international visitors from New Zealand, the United Kingdom and Sin- gapore, which added to the excitement of this year’s championship season. We also thank Japan’s Itoman Swimming Club for competing at the Victorian Open Championships, continuing a long-standing relationship.

Out of the pool, we had a busy year implementing many new programs to support and develop the sport of swimming within the community. By securing three years of funding from VicHealth under the state sporting association participation program, we can provide programs for swimmers with disability and make the sport of swimming more inclusive across all levels. We also saw the introduction of an athlete support program in 2011-12, ‘Leadership beyond the pool’, which we will continue to grow in 2012-13.

At the beginning of the 2011-12 season we welcomed a new major sponsor, Engine Swim. Swimming Victoria would like to acknowledge Managing Director Toby Haenan and the team at Engine Swim for their contribution and effort in supporting many areas of our sport.

The Victorian Institute of Sport once again provided valuable support to our elite swimmers with sports science and medical support. The Institute has moved into well-equipped new premises and we look forward to continuing our relationship with them.

Victorian clubs continued to perform well on the national stage, with Melbourne Vicentre claiming both the combined Club Point Score at the 2012 EnergyAustralia Swimming Championships and Australian Age Championships. Individually we saw Matson Lawson and Matthew Targett gain selection for the Australian Swim Team for the 2012 Olympics.

We sincerely thank our directors, officers, committee members, officials, club and district volunteers and Swimming Victoria staff for their continued efforts and commitment to Victorian swimming during 2011-12. As we look towards a new strategic plan for 2014-16, and shift our focus to the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, we look forward to continuing to grow both our sport and the business of Swimming Victoria.

Annual Report 2011 - 12 25 Swimming Western Australia

What a fantastic year for swimming in Western Australia. In the last 12 months we have secured new events, both na- tional and international, strengthened our partnerships with stakeholders and watched our athletes secure their places on the Australian team headed to London for the 2012 Olympic Games.

We recently said goodbye to our Chief Executive Officer Simon Taylor. Simon had been with Swimming Western Australia for two years, and helped rejuvenate the association as well as the sport in general.

Certainly a highlight of 2011–12 was the announcement of the BHP Billiton Aquatic Super Series, a brand new, unique, international swimming event that brings together elite pool and open water swimming, international water polo and community engagement right across the state.

This event will be the biggest swimming event in Australia, and rival the best aquatic events in the world. Taking place in January 2013, with an initial three-year run, the vision for the BHP Billiton Aquatic Super Series is to provide a legacy for the sport in Western Australia for years to come. We are a founding partner in this exciting event, and we look for- ward to its greater impact across the state in the near future.

As an association, Swimming Western Australia underwent significant changes during 2011–12. Earlier this year our membership passed our new constitution, which marked the beginning of a stronger governance model in line with best practice for sport in Western Australia.

We oversaw significant reforms in our competition structure, drove better facility planning, and engaged in school swimming at an unprecedented level. We also developed a new corporate brand evident across our collateral, and through our media partners, in particular the Sunday Times, we continued to grow our sports profile around Western Australia.

Looking forward, we are excited for what the next 12 months hold for our sport. In July we will be cheering on Tommaso D’Orsogna, and Sally Foster as they compete at the London Olympic Games. In September, Western Australia will host the Australian Short Course Championships, then in January we will welcome the launch of the BHP Billiton Aquatic Super Series.

Swimming Western Australia would like to thank its partners Venues West, EventsCorp, the Western Australian Institute of Sport, and Department of Sport and Recreation for helping us secure these major national events and for their contin- ued and ongoing support.

We would also like to recognise our sponsors— Healthway, Toyota WA, the Sunday Times, Perthnow, Vorgee and the Hancock Family Medical Foundation, as well as our charity partner the Asthma Foundation of Western Australia. Swimming Western Australia is looking forward to the exciting future ahead, and is proud to continue to lead this great sport in Western Australia.

Annual Report 2011 - 12 43 Swimming Australia Limited and Controlled Entities ABN: 14 109 333 628 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

The financial report covers the consolidated group of Swimming Australia Limited and controlled entities, and Swimming Australia Limited as an individual parent entity. Swimming Australia Limited is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Preparation The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards - Reduced Disclosure Requirements, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Urgent Issues Group Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial statements of the consolidated group of Swimming Australia Limited and controlled entities comply with Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements as issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB). The Australian Accounting Standards - Reduced Disclosure Requirements set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. Accounting Policies a. Principles. of Consolidation A controlled entity is any entity over which Swimming Australia Limited has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing the power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are considered. The consolidated group comprises of, Swimming Australia Limited, Swimming Australia Foundation Trust and Swimming Australia Property Trust. As at the reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the consolidated financial statements as well as their results for the year then ended. Where controlled entities have entered (left) the consolidated group during the year, their operating results have been included (excluded) from the date control was obtained (ceased). All inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity. b. Revenue. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers. Grant revenue is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income when it is controlled. When there are conditions attached to grant revenue relating to the use of those grants for specific purposes it is recognised in the balance sheet as a liability until such conditions are met or services provided. Donations and bequests are recognised as revenue when received unless they are designated for a specific purpose, where they are carried forward as prepaid income on the balance sheet. Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which for floating rate financial assets is the rate inherent in the instrument. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

44 Swimming Australia Swimming Australia Limited and Controlled Entities ABN: 14 109 333 628 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

Revenue (continued) Income from investments is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). c. Inventories. Inventories consist of various publications, videos and corporate gifts and are measured at the lower of cost and current replacement cost. Inventories acquired at no cost, or for nominal consideration are valued at the current replacement cost as at the date of acquisition. d. Property,. Plant and Equipment Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair values less, where applicable, accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Property Freehold land and buildings are shown at their fair value (being the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction), based on periodic, but at least triennial, valuations by external independent valuers, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are recognised in other comprehensive income and credited to a revaluation reserve in equity. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same classes of assets are charged against fair value reserves directly in equity; all other decreases are charged to the statement of comprehensive income. Each year the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset charged to the statement of comprehensive income and depreciation based on the asset's original cost is transferred from the revaluation reserve to retained earnings. Any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is restated to the revalued amount of the asset. Freehold land and buildings that have been contributed at no cost, or for nominal cost are valued at the fair value of the asset at the date it is acquired. Plant and Equipment Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. Plant and equipment that have been contributed at no cost, or for nominal cost, are valued at the fair value of the asset at the date it is acquired. Depreciation The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including building and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight line basis over their useful lives to the consolidated entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Annual Report 2011 - 12 45 Swimming Australia Limited and Controlled Entities ABN: 14 109 333 628 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

Property, Plant and Equipment (continued) The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate Buildings 2.5% Motor Vehicles 33.3% Furniture and fittings 4% - 10% Computer and electronic equipment 33.3% Multimedia/Tech equipment 20%-33.3% Software 33.3%-50% The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains or losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. e. Operating Leases Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term. f. Financial Instruments Initial recognition, classification and subsequent measurement Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is adopted for financial assets that are delivered within timeframes established by marketplace convention. Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument is not classified at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below. Derecognition Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expire. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed is recognised in profit or loss. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets are classified at fair value through profit or loss when they are held for trading for the purpose of short term profit taking, where they are derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable

NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Financial Instruments (continued) performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial consolidated assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the entity’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated as such or that are not classified in any of the other categories. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments. Financial liabilities Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantee) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Fair value Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models. Impairment At each reporting date, the consolidated entity assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. g. Impairment of Assets At each reporting date, the consolidated entity reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of comprehensive income. Where the future economic benefits of the asset are not primarily dependent upon on the asset’s ability to generate net cash inflows and when the consolidated entity would, if deprived of the asset, replace its remaining future economic benefits, value in use is determined as the depreciated replacement cost of an asset.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an assets class, the entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the class of assets belong.

h. Employee Benefits Provision is made for the consolidated entity’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance sheet date. Employee benefits expected to be settled within one year together with benefits arising from wages, salaries and annual leave which may be settled after one year, have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Other employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the net present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Contributions are made by the consolidated entity to an employee superannuation fund and are charged as expenses when incurred. i. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at-call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. j. Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. k. Unexpended Grants The consolidated entity receives grant monies to fund projects either for contracted periods of time or for specific projects irrespective of the period of time required to complete those projects. It is the policy of the consolidated entity to treat grants monies as unexpended grants in the balance sheet where the consolidated entity is contractually obliged to provide the services in a subsequent financial period to when the grant is received or in the case of specific project grants where the project has not been completed. l. Contributions Swimming Australia Limited receives non-reciprocal contributions from the government and other parties for no or a nominal value. These contributions are recognised at the fair value on the date of acquisition upon which time an asset is taken up in the balance sheet and revenue in the income statement. m. Income Tax No provision for income tax has been raised as the company and consolidated entity are exempt from income tax under Division 50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. n. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at balance date. o. Comparative Figures Where required by Accounting Standards comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

p. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the group. Key estimates — Impairment The consolidated entity assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions and events specific to the consolidated entity that may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. Fair value less costs to sell or current replacement cost calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates. q. Econom ic Dependence Swimming Australia Limited is dependent on the Australian Sports Commission, EnergyAustralia, Network TEN and Speedo for the majority of its revenue used to operate the business. At the date of this report the Board of Directors has no reason to believe that the Australian Sports Commission, EnergyAustralia, Network Ten and Speedo will not continue to support Swimming Australia Limited. r. Forr eign Currency Transactions and Balances Foreign currency transactions during the year are converted to Australian currency at the rates of exchange at the end of the financial year. Assets and liabilities held in foreign currency are converted to Australian currency at the year-end exchange rate. Gains and losses due to for foreign currency conversion are recognised through the statement of comprehensive income. s.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Swimming Australia Limited and Controlled Entities

Report on the financial report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Swimming Australia Limited (the company) and controlled entities (the consolidated entity), which comprises the balance sheet as at 30 June 2012, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the 30 June 2012 ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies, other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration for both the consolidated entity company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors’ responsibility for the financial report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements and the Corporations Act 2001. This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

Our procedures include reading the other information in the Annual Report to determine whether it contains any material inconsistencies with the financial report.
