Andy Pearce - Senior Coach

Lead Coach to National Potential Squad

Before moving into coaching I was a competitive swimmer at Leeds. I trained in the top squad for 12 years averaging 10 sessions and around 80,000 metres per week. I was National Age Group Champion at 1500 f/c and won 2 silver medals at Senior National Championships. I was an England and Great Britain Senior International Swimmer from 1986 -1991 and was fortunate to train with and compete against many top International Swimmers. I currently hold the British Record for the Swim Marathon (5000 metres) set in 1991.

For 6 years I was employed as a coach with the City of Leeds Swimming Club. The squad I coached were aged between 10 and 13 years old and they trained to a maximum of 8 sessions a week. Whilst there I produced many Yorkshire and North Eastern Counties champions and National Age Group finalists and medalists. I also coached many swimmers that went on to win Nationals and gain selection for the World Class Start / Potential Programme.

“Remember everything you do in training has a reason and a purpose so be tough, listen to your coach and always have a positive attitude towards training.
