NEWS FROM THE POOL DECK IN OUR LATEST NEWSLETTER

As the 2025 - 2026 swim season comes to a close, we are proud to reflect on another year of growth, achievement, and collaboration across Nova Scotia. Throughout the season, Swim Nova Scotia continued to support athlete, coach, official, and club development while celebrating the many successes of our swimming community.

From provincial championships and summer invitationals to Masters, varsity, and open water events, our athletes had countless opportunities to train, compete, and achieve personal bests. None of this would have been possible without the dedication of our coaches, officials, volunteers, host clubs, and organizing committees. Your commitment continues to make swimming in Nova Scotia a success!

As we look ahead to 2026-2027, we are excited to continue building on the momentum of this season by creating new opportunities for athletes, supporting the development of our coaches and officials, and strengthening our clubs and aquatic community. Thank you for another incredible year - we look forward to what’s ahead!

Swim Nova Scotia is proud to celebrate the induction of Nancy Garapick and Nigel Kemp into Swimming Canada’s Circle of Excellence.

Nancy Garapick, a Halifax Trojan Aquatic Club alumna, was one of Canada’s first international swimming stars, winning two Olympic bronze medals at the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal and inspiring generations of swimmers through her remarkable achievements.

Nigel Kemp’s impact on Canadian swimming spans more than five decades. As head coach of the Halifax Trojan Aquatic Club and Dalhousie University, he guided countless athletes to success, including coaching Nancy to her Olympic podium finishes, while leaving a lasting legacy through his leadership and mentorship.

Congratulations on this well-deserved honour. Their contributions to our sport, both in Nova Scotia and across Canada, will continue to inspire future generations.
