" The inaugural Everyday Swim conference in London has highlighted the role swimming can play in achieving legacy targets of 2012 and achieving local authority and wider Government ambitions.

The conference, which gave the Amateur Swimming Association its first formal opportunity to share learning from its £3m Everyday Swim project, was well received by over 180 delegates who accessed valuable tools and real life examples to boost swimming programmes and participation.

And the ASA was praised by Sport England Chair Derek Mapp who hailed the organisation as one of the most ‘can do’ governing bodies in the country and encouraged others to follow in the programmes footsteps.

“Everyday Swim is a great scheme that really does work,” he said. “Swimming is the second largest activity after walking and it has a huge role to play in helping successfully deliver the Olympic Games legacy."
