Testimonials

Our daughter has been swimming for a few years now and has discovered her love of racing and the Australia Dolphins - her heroes. 

Why Not Me Swim Clinics provide unbelievable opportunities in connecting our Dolphins to our young swimmers in a way that is unique, fun, safe, educational and oh so very special.  Our daughter has thoroughly enjoyed spending time with the greats like Ariarne Titmus, Emma McKeon, Emily Seebohm to name just a few.  She was like a sponge during their information session and even had some of her questions answered. 

The athletes are so genuine and open and will answer all the questions from favourite drill to snacks between races.  Then imagine this for a second....  being 10 years old and getting to step up on the blocks with Butterfly Queen Emma McKeon next to you. Hello!!! Dreams do come true!  Then even better at the end of the race .... Emma tells YOU - great race!!!  OMG her eyes just lit up!!  Emma thought she raced well.  It's moments like these that stick with your child forever. Then to top the day off, even more, you get time to have a special item signed and a photo with the elite athlete that you can treasure always or do as our daughter has done and has all her photos up in lights in her room!! 

We love Why Not Me Swim Clinics!! I cannot recommend Lachlan and Tom highly enough for this amazing program they have set up and run so well.  Lachlan makes you feel welcome from the minute you arrive and we love seeing him at meets now.  

Try a Why Not Me Swim Clinic and give your child the experience of a lifetime.  Who knows, it may spark a champion in the making too.

Tom and Lachy combined have decades of experience at the highest level of swimming. To reach that level, many countless hours of dedication towards understanding the sport at every level of development, including experiencing it for themselves, along with looking back in reflection of what they have been through all add up to give a unique perspective on the life of swimming.

I would highly recommend any swimmer who is interested in developing themselves to reach their full potential to attend any number of these clinics to try and accelerate their progress through the absorption of the knowledge these guys bring to the table.

When I attended the clinic with them, it ran smoothly and I was able to get a good understanding of where each swimmer was individually and to then give them the best advice needed for them at that time in their swimming journey. Combining this with Tom and Lachy’s contributions, overall, I think everyone who went came away with knowledge that definitely motivated them to move towards being the swimmer they always wanted to be.

The Why Not Me Swim Clinics have been fantastic for my children. They've benefited greatly from the clinics, not only in the pool but also out of it. Not only do the kids have access to some of our greatest ever swimmers, but they also have the knowledge of those that run the clinics available to them first-hand. I think it's extraordinary that swimmers of this calibre give up their time to impart their knowledge and share their stories with our next generation of swimmers.
