2008 Beijing Olympics - Outstanding results for British Swimming

Britain won two gold medals (women's 400m and 800m freestyle - Rebecca Adlington) and one bronze medal (women's 400m freestyle - Jo Jackson). This is arguably its best ever Olympic results. The 400m win was Britain's first women's Olympic gold medal in 48 years. Bill has been afforded significant credit for this outstanding achievement.

Coaching and DVD Update

During the second half of 2008, Bill is working on pool deck with the Kings organisation. He is also planning to upgrade his series of 9 technique-focused DVDs which have been very popular and sold world-wide through the Australian Swim Coaches and Teachers Association.

Consulting

During July and August of 2008 Bill worked in Singapore with Singapore Swimming and the Singapore Sports Council. Thirteen national swim teams, including the USA and Canada, were conducting their final staging camps prior to the Beijing Olympic Games. In all, 31 national teams in numerous sports held their final pre-Games training in Singapore and close observation was made of many of these teams.

Books

Bill is a published author of "World Championship Swim Training" and is currently working on his second book titled "Invincible - Friendly on the Surface, Deadly Below". This book will translate Bill's sporting success stories into life lessons and explain how these lessons can be adapted and incorporated into everyday life and business.
