TASMAN MAGIC COACHES

Shaun Foley - Head Coach

I swam competitively for 10 years, representing swimming NZ twice at the Australian Junior National and World Wheelchair Games, achieving a Bronze medal in 200 IM. I held multiple NZ para records and still hold the 400 IM record today.

I have been coaching for over 10 years, I love coaching swimmers and seeing their goals become a reality. I coached Joshua Wilmer to a gold medal in the men’s SB 100 Breaststroke at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games.

I am also a silver accredited coach with swimming NZ.

Cara Pearson - Assistant Coach

I aspire to make my young swimmers as passionate about swimming as I am.

There is nothing more rewarding than helping kids achieve a specific goal that they once thought was impossible.
