Congratulations to Michael Palfery, SPW's Assistant Coach, who was named as “The Age Group Coach of the Year” at the 2010 Telstra Swimmer of the Year Awards last night.

Mick is a very dedicated, enthusiastic coach, and we are very proud of and lucky to have Mick at St Peters Western.

He has done an outstanding job with our youngsters. It’s particularly impressive that Mick has been able to coach young 15 year old Yolane Kukla to being a Commonwealth Games Gold medallist. Mick is able to boast the achievements of several SPW swimmers who are Australian Age Champions and Australian and Queensland record holders.
