Introducing the Executive Team

Dean Greenwood company director
 
Dean Greenwood, Director

Hi, my background in swimming goes back to growing up on the beach or around swimming pools as my father was heavily involved in surf lifesaving. It was therefore a natural progression into competitive swimming and surf lifesaving and a career that lasted about 15 years. By now swimming was a large part of my life and coaching was an exciting opportunity to put something back into the sport and pass on some of what I had learned to young swimmers coming up.

Running my own swim school has been a challenging and rewarding experience and I am proud to work alongside some amazing young pioneers in this industry. Operating DGSS is a team effort and you will get to meet some of these incredible people below. My guiding principal everyday is that we have the opportunity to make a positive contribution to young peoples lives, and we should work hard at doing just that. 
I hope you will enjoy your swimming experience with us.
