The 1st FINA Gold Medal Swimming Coaches Clinic concluded successfully with more than 400 swimming coaches from a hundred nations, on October 30, 2012 in Moscow, Russia. The golden opportunity offered for two days to exchange ideas, experience and knowledge with top-level coaches from swimming powerhouses like USA, Australia or China was praised by many participants.

In all, 11 leading figures in the world of swimming, representing six different countries -- all of whom helped steer an athlete to gold medal success at the London 2012 Olympic Games -- provided a comprehensive overview of coaching practices and shared valuable expertise with delegates interested in developing elite swimming athletes in their own country.

The Clinic was scheduled to allow for breaks, thus providing enough time to discuss the wide range of techniques and tips presented by the speakers and enable networking within the coaching community.

The next edition of the FINA Gold Medal Swimming Coaches Clinic will be held as part of the 3rd FINA World Aquatics Convention in Doha, Qatar, in December 2014.
