Proud of Our Coach Phil! 💙💛

A huge congratulations to our Dapto Swimming Club coach Phil McIlwraith, who was recently selected as part of the 2026–27 DOOLEYS NSW Para Futures Squad coaching team. 👏🏊‍♂️

Phil joined coaches from across NSW at Knox Grammar School, working with developing Para athletes through performance testing, technical development and skills.

We’re incredibly proud to see Phil representing Dapto and sharing his knowledge and experience with the next generation of Para swimmers. 💙💛

We’re very lucky to have Phil coaching our swimmers here at Dapto and couldn’t be prouder to see him representing our club on the NSW Para pathway.

Congratulations and well done, Phil! We’re excited to follow your journey and see what’s ahead! 🏊‍♂️💙💛
