Coaching Manager: Clem Laidler

I am currently the Club Development Secretary for Stockton ASC  and have been with the club now for 42 years. Like most of you, I started out just watching my two sons swim, but then moved on to helping out. I progressed to Assistant Coaching Manager when John Thompson left the club and eventually ended up as Coaching Manager. I have a full time job outside of Stockton ASC, but like all of the other Coaches and Volunteers, I do not take any money for the services I provide to the club.
