Coaching Team

Nicky Emery (Head Coach)

Nicky is an ASA level 2 coach and teacher and J2 race judge.

She says: "I've been involved here since my daughters joined the club back in the noughties. I helped on poolside and then qualified as a coach in 2013.

"As well as Wellington I've worked with Exeter and Taunton Deane swimming clubs. That incuded the performance squads with swimmers competing at national level.

"Wellington is the friendliest and most inclusive club I have worked with."

Teresa Smith

Teresa is an ASA Level 2 coach and J2S race starter. 

She says: "I've been coaching swimming for eight years and with Wellington Swimming Club since 2016. I got involved because my daughter was enjoying competing and it was more fun to be on poolside than just watching.

"My favourite thing about coaching is working with young swimmers and seeing how they develop."
