City of Glasgow Swim Team

New Head Coach

City of Glasgow Swim Team are very pleased to welcome our new Head Coach - Andrena Hammond.

Andrena is well known to swimmers and parents in COGST as she previously worked for us as a coach and has been helping out covering squads on a temporary basis for some time.

She joins us from the Glasgow School of Sport where she led the programme as the High Performance Coach.

Andrena has been involved in swimming for over twenty years both as a competitor, coach and a tutor. Andrena swam at a national level and was a Scottish National gold medallist for several of her key events.

Andrena has enjoyed success in producing several Scottish and British Champions, and she was voted Sports Coach of the Year in 2001 & 2004. Andrena has been involved with several coaching initiatives within Scottish Swimming as Head Coach for both Pathway to Performance and Flying start programmes. A personal highlight for Andrena came in 2004 when she was selected by British Swimming to coach at an international stroke camp. Andrena has attained the highest level of Swimming Coaching qualification (ASA Coach) and is also an ASA Tutor allowing her to provide training courses for swimming teachers and coaches.

We look forward to working closely with Andrena to continue the resurgence of COGST as a force to be reckoned with in Scotland!
