Overview
In 2015, AUSTSWIM presents a series of conferences across Australia and New Zealand, focusing on
innovative and up to date initatives based around:
•
Water Safety
•
Aquatic Education
•
Aqua Exercise
•
Middle Management – aquatic service officers and program coordinators
‘Soak It Up’
Our theme for the conference series is ‘Soak It Up’; that’s what our delegates crave; relevant and up to date
information delivered by outstanding presenters in an interactive manner.
Your organisation can also be part of this forum. Showcase your product and services to the delegates, at
one state conference or all seven (7). Packages are varied and suit every budget.
The AUSTSWIM offices sit under one umbrella, working collaboratively to help reduce the drowning
statistics. AUSTSWIM has a very holistic view on water activity - It’s not all about ‘swimming strokes’,
rather water safety, recreation, fitness and physical activity for ‘Every Body’.

Valuable connections with aquatic education professionals is our promise to Sponsors and Trade
Exhibitors. The 2015 programs may vary slightly in each state however we are pleased to announce the
target market has now expanded to also include other professionals and not just the ‘swimming teacher’ a more attractive proposal for your organisation
