INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Scottish Swimming’s Plan for November 2013 – March 2015. In previous years this document would review the performance of the past year 2012/13 whilst looking ahead to the forthcoming year 2013 - 14. This year will look slightly different as we move to a new reporting and investment cycle. This new approach, aligned to sportscotland’s investment process, will outline our aims and objectives over the next seventeen months taking us through to the end of March 2015. Our Corporate Plan which forms the framework for our Annual Plan comes to an end in October 2014. Scottish Swimming plans to consult with members and partners as well as set up a number of focus groups to help shape our next Corporate Plan which will start in April 2015. The review captures our progress against the sixth year of our Corporate Plan and demonstrates strong improvement in a number of critical areas for our governing body. About Us As the national governing body for swimming in Scotland, Scottish Swimming represents our clubs, swim schools, aquatic disciplines, and thousands of talented and committed volunteers across the entire swimmer pathway from development and participation through to performance. Our vision is to ensure that everyone can swim. Swimming is the sport for all – the sport for life. Our strategy is to take advantage of the natural inclusiveness of our sport, developing quality initiatives that help people enjoy swimming to their full potential no matter which aquatic activity they pursue. Our key areas of business are as follows:
Development – to improve the delivery of swimming in Scotland through the development of learn to swim, school swimming, clubs, participation programmes, volunteers, teachers and coaches and community partnerships.
Performance – to improve the performance results of Scottish swimmers through better coaching and education, supported by our continuously evolving performance programme.
Services – to lead a cutting edge organisation that supports and promotes our participation, development and performance initiatives, including the attraction of resources to invest in our sport.
Our Members Scottish Swimming is a membership organisation; at the core of our sport are our clubs and members. As you will see in the review of 2012 - 2013 and the plans going forward our members remain central to what we do. Our network of clubs covers the whole of Scotland and they provide the infrastructure for our 20,000 members to regularly take part as a swimmer or volunteer to support the swimmers through teaching and coaching, technical officials and club volunteers. The team at Scottish Swimming would like to thank all those volunteers who make our sport happen across Scotland. Page 3 of 24
Partnership Working Scottish Swimming continues to work closely in partnership with sportscotland across the athlete pathway. The governing body receives tremendous financial support from the national agency for sport and our swimmers benefit from world class support through the sportscotland Institute of Sport. The Scottish Government continue to support us to ensure every child learns to swim. Our work with the Government has resulted in a further two years investment into the National Top Up swimming programme. Sponsorship continues to be strong through on-going partnerships with Scottish Gas (principal partner), Scottish Salmon and Speedo (official partners). InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) is our official hotel provider. We have successfully created new partnerships with several external agencies to implement our participation work such as the Lothian Family Nurse Partnership, Street League and North Glasgow Housing Association, these programmes are support by grant funding awarded from Comic Relief and the Big Lottery. Our partnership work with the University of Stirling, local authorities, leisure trusts, key universities and pool providers continues to be critical. Winning Students, Scotland's national sports scholarship scheme for student athletes, continues to be a support for our swimmers pursuing both a higher education as well as fulfilling their swimming ambitions. Scottish Swimming thanks all of its partners for their support. Scottish Swimming is building on the growing popularity of aquatics and the opportunity of having the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in 2014 to strengthen our existing networks and to establish new partnerships with suppliers, sponsors and the media. The Olympic and Paralympic Games in London have proven a great opportunity to promote the sport, identify key communications contacts, maximise media coverage and improve the visibility of swimming to the public. 2.

REVIEW AND DISCUSSION
In reviewing 2012 - 2013, we have had a strong year with good progress against our headline targets. As we evolve as a governing body, we recognise more and more the importance of influencing the work of our partners, particularly local authorities and leisure trusts. When it comes to our development work, we have matured from specific outcomes with individuals, to measuring the number of partnerships working effectively and the number of local authorities adopting our programmes and our recommended best practice. We believe this more strategic angle will, in turn, deliver more powerful results. A detailed review of key areas is captured below. 4.1
Participation – With a new team in place to develop our Just Add Water participation programme we have focussed the last 12 months on developing training and resources to assist local authorities and leisure trusts to put in place a recreational swimmer pathway, making their pool programmes fun, fresh and vibrant. With the support of Scottish Salmon we now have a new early years swimming programme, Start to Swim, which aims to ensure more children are introduced to swimming at the earliest possible age. Start to Swim complements our other training and resource programmes for children and adults. As we move into 2014 our key priorities are to ensure every child can swim and the implementation of the recreational swimmer pathway, which we hope will lead to an increase in people participating in swimming for health, fitness and fun.
4.2
Membership – Over the past 12 months membership has continued to grow. The longer term trend over the past 10 years has been one of steady growth from just over 17,000 to over 20,000. Figure 1
o o o
Membership numbers include Swimming, Disciplines, Teachers & Coaches, Officials and Volunteers. At the end of 2004, our membership totaled 17,145. At the end of the Membership year (2012/13), the numbers registered were 20,261. During 2011 Scottish Swimming moved to a two-tier structure which saw some of our clubs move to Swim School status. This resulted in a drop in our membership. Our target for 2012/13 was to grow the membership to 20,000, which was exceeded and with capacity in our clubs we aim to work across club committees, the regional managers, our membership team and marketing to drive interest.

o
Registered members do not include individual swim school participants, children learning to swim through our national programme, or individuals that have gone through our Just Add Water participation programmes.
4.3
Learn To Swim – Our Learn to Swim and our Awards Programme (badges and certificates) have continued to grow. Moving forward the Learn to Swim and Awards Programme will become part of our recreational swimmer pathway and continue to support our partners to deliver quality learn to swim programmes across Scotland.
4.4
Club Development – We believe that strong clubs can offer local communities a vibrant focus for volunteer and athlete development, essential for creating lifelong participants and local and national heroes. Our aim is to continue to strengthen our existing network of clubs rather than create new clubs. Our Regional Swimming Managers (RSDMs) have continued to work with and support our clubs. We now have over half of our swimming clubs swiMark accredited, providing a solid foundation on which to help them to grow and retain their members, ensuring we have stronger sustainable clubs. They have also created effective partnerships with clubs, pool operators and other partners helping to deliver more full time paid coaches than ever before enabling a model of professional coaching to drive performance development. Figure 2

o 4.5
The number of clubs (including composites) that are affiliated has remained static over the past 10 years; 161 to 162. The real change is in relation to the number of clubs that have signed up to SwiMark; 8 in 2002 which increased significantly to 119 in 2013. Out of the 119 clubs that have signed up to SwiMark, we had 80 clubs achieving SwiMark compared to 2 in 2002.
Education - Teachers and coaches: We benefit from a growing workforce and are delighted with the show of support for licensing to ensure quality of delivery.

Figure 3
o 2003/04 shows the number of teaches and coaches taking up the ASA (English Swimming) qualification with the numbers peaking in 2004/05 before declining. This decline is captured in the figures presented during 2006/07. o The UKCC qualification was introduced in 2007/08 and has seen the number of candidates taking up this qualification increase year on year. o Since November 2012 we have continued to develop 526 teachers and coaches through continuous professional development courses.
4.6
Performance - Progress towards Glasgow and Rio continues with the emergence of new and developing swimmers on to the World stage, and another strong representation at the European Junior, European Youth and World Junior Championships. Scotland maintains a strong contribution to British Swimming with a 26% share of this year’s World Championship team and 6 out of 7 swimmers making finals in Barcelona. Coupled with medals at the World University Games from Lewis Smith and Caitlin McClatchey a strong balance between youth and experience is developing. From a British perspective the newly appointed Performance Team and recommendations from the British Swimming Review following the Olympics are only now starting to “bed” in. The context of a changing performance environment continues to drive us towards ensuring a sustainable but dynamic approach. The IPC World Championships in Montreal saw the British Team perform with distinction winning 55 medals, well beyond the 30 – 40 medal target set. Scottish representation was again strong with Scottish swimmers winning 4 medals – Andrew Mullen taking 3 of these is a fantastic achievement and James Clegg adding to his Paralympic medal from the previous year. As the excitement of the Commonwealth Games gradually increases, it is clear from the World Championships that the level of performance is intensifying along with the increasing spread of nations achieving finalists and medallists, including many Commonwealth nations. A hotly contested Commonwealth Games is therefore expected and our focus on supporting a range of athletes to reach the top 15 in the world, 2 per nation (2PN) becomes more apparent now and for the longer term.

Figure 4 shows the number of Scottish swimmers ranked in the World Top 15 (2 per nation) graphed against the number of Scottish swimmers qualifying for the World Championship Team in that particular year. Overall, the graph shows a positive upward trend from 2001 to 2013 in both the World Top 15 and the numbers making the World Championship team. The number of swimmers making the Worlds Team never drops below the number in the World top 15 (2PN) and therefore we believe that aspiring to achieve our headline target of 6 – 8 Scots in the World Top 15 (2 per nation) continues to be a relevant marker to help ensure a positive selection of Scottish numbers at each World Championships.
Marketing Activities – During 2013 we continued developing our digital marketing activity leading the way for Scottish sport in delivering a strong e-focussed marketing strategy. We have successfully grown our audience and content on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Flickr and Soundcloud and increased the traffic to the Scottish Swimming Website. We have more than doubled page impressions, visits and unique visitors to our website and appointed a new digital agency to develop a new responsive design for the site in the future, to make it easily accessible from all devices. In addition we ran a pilot to livestream the Scottish Gas National Age Group Championships in April. With securing additional funding from British Gas we were also able to stream all sessions from the Scottish Gas National Championships in June, which attracted more than 10,000 viewers live. With using YouTube as free platform for the broadcast and making all sessions available free-to-air, we have given members and the public the opportunity to watch the Championships live and retrospectively. The audience was split into 2/3 members and 1/3 public users. Media coverage of swimming continues to be strong. In 2013 we received regular coverage in the major Scottish print titles as well as broadcasters like the BBC, and Page 9 of 24
successfully placed both news and features on Scottish Swimming’s activities in the media. Our new sponsor Scottish Salmon supported us to develop training and resources for our new early years swimming programme creating a new character, Sammie the Salmon, to help to encourage more babies and toddlers to learn to swim. 4.8
Facilities – Since the publication of Scottish Swimming’s second Facilities Strategy in 2009, the top 3 priorities for facility developments have been met with funding support from sportscotland. Over the past six years, sportscotland has contributed £22.5M to leverage £264m invested into swimming pools throughout Scotland. Significant developments during 2013 have included the re-opening of the refurbished Tollcross International Aquatics Centre, the opening of the 50 metre pool in Dundee and the regional standard facility at Glenrothes. Going forward our priorities for facility development are based on enhancing a network of regional (8 lane x 25m pools with 20m learn to swim/warm up pool) training and competition facilities.
o sportscotland investment has been fundamental in leveraging £264M towards swimming pools in Scotland.
4.9
Discipline Plans - Disciplines are fully integrated into our plans. Whilst we continue to work in partnership to identify effective strategies for engaging and progressing against disciplines plans, specifics include: The partnership with Edinburgh Leisure for Diving is now fully established, including Performance Development Talent ID Programme. Since the recruitment of our Water Polo Development Officer, membership in water polo has grown steadily from 170 to over 500. The schools participation programme has doubled in size and we have developed and held our first level 2 water polo course in Scotland.
4.10
Governance - In the area of governance, we continue to strive for best practice, appreciating that unless our structure is professionally managed, we cannot provide the framework for our members and partners to flourish. We are delighted to report an excellent audit carried out by KPMG at the start of the year which highlighted strong Page 10 of 24
evidence of good practice, sound policies and procedures, experienced, knowledgeable and passionate staff and clear leadership from our Board. We have strong relationships with our partners and sponsors, with both marketing and communication strategies being developed this year. While strong governance may not steal headlines, we believe it is essential and pride ourselves that we lead in this area. Equality remains core to everything, we will look to incorporate the advanced level into the plans for the next Corporate Plan, meanwhile we continue as an organisation to deliver on equality with regular updates provided to our Board of Directors. Behind our headline targets, the management team reviews progress against a number of underpinning measures – measures that create the base required for excellence in our areas of focus. These measures are discussed on a regular basis by the management team with issues being raised at Board level. The measures include areas such as: 5.
The number of clubs with a level 2 licensed coach Satisfaction survey results for volunteers, staff and other key groups The number of volunteers The number of athletes, and the number of performance/performance development coaches who have athletes at each level of our pathway The turnover of the association and our reserves

DISCIPLINE SUMMARY TARGETS: REPORTING 2012 - 2013
The following core targets have been agreed by the disciplines of diving, synchro and water polo and the summary is captured below. Each discipline has also been reported upon separately in consultation with the management team and Board. The achievement or not of targets does not represent the good work that the disciplines continue to do and as can be seen many of the targets have narrowly been missed. Consideration will be given to more realistic and accurate targets for the disciplines going forward.

FINANCIAL PROFILE
Our projected turnover for the period 2012 - 2013 is £2.9M. The accounts for the year ending 31st October 2013 have not yet been finalised, however early indications suggest that this target will be achieved. Members also supported our proposal for fixed fees over a four year period, part of our strategy for long term stability and for securing additional funds totalling £250k to support our four year London/Glasgow performance plan. To date we have secured £155k with £100k re-invested during 2010-11. Our target (£55k) for 2012-13 looks set to be achieved leaving a balance of £40k. If this is realised we will have achieved our target (£250k), which puts us in a strong position leading into Glasgow 2014. The projected turnover anticipated for the year ahead for 2013 - 2014 is circa £3M. Several key features for next year include:
A £1.9M in-principle investment from sportscotland; this will be split into £1.3M investment to support 2013 - 2014 and £582k to support our plans through to March 2015. sportscotland are moving to an April to March reporting and investment cycle from 1st April 2015. Plans are currently underway to ensure we align this new approach into our new four year strategic plan. The additional income secured through our membership has enabled Scottish Swimming to make decisions based purely on performance. The number of local authorities and leisure trusts using our Aquatic programme and Awards Programme continues to grow. This year will see some exciting developments as the development team promote their wide range of training resources, products and services to support the recreational swimmer pathway. We envisage that this will enable us to engage with our partners across Scotland and provide a more effective service to help increase participation in aquatic activity in the lead up to Glasgow 2014. Participation is an area that has seen growth in investment supporting training and resources through initiatives such as Early Years and Swim 4 Change. This largely remains unchanged with continued funding committed for the next two years. UKCC continues to be an important area of our business activities with the number of candidates taking up UKCC level 1,2 & 3 increasing year on year. Our sponsorship agreements are committed through to 2016; our focus over the next twelve months is to ensure that we explore all opportunities connected with Glasgow 2014.
Alongside our recent financial growth and success, we remain focused on the challenge of securing the investment needed to meet the growing costs for delivering our ambitious plans for the future. On the pages that follow, we have outlined our projected income and expenditure for 2013 2014 directed towards our three business areas: Development, performance and services.

CONCLUSION
It is our hope that this document, alongside the Corporate Plan for 2006 – 2014, offers a sense of Scottish Swimming’s achievements over the last year, while presenting a clear picture of our intended plans for 2013 – 2015. This will be the final Annual Plan associated with our 2006 – 2014 Corporate Plan, and with the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow taking place during the term, it proves to be one of the most exciting years for Scottish Swimming. In addition our attentions will be turning to the preparation of our next Corporate Plan, and of course the on-going development work and preparation for the Rio Olympic and Paralympic Games. The team at Scottish Swimming would like to thank our members and partners for their continued support and look forward to working with you, supporting you and responding to the challenges and opportunities in the year ahead.
