Through early 2023 the Board of Directors of Swim BC has worked diligently with staff and the Sport Law consultant group to develop and approve the new Swim BC Strategic Plan. As many of you know, the Board prioritized as much membership input as was feasible to shape the content and direction of the plan. Announced and introduced at the 2023 BC Swimming Congress, we’re pleased to present to our membership the document that will support the direction of Swim BC through 2028. The Board intends for the document to be a dynamic planning tool and will review on an annual basis.
You can review and download both the “long form” and the “info graphic” here. If you have any questions regarding the new strategic plan, please feel free to contact Swim BC.
