Gina Logan
We are delighted to introduce swimming coach Gina. As part of Gina’s 40-year career as a PE teacher, she enjoyed teaching young people to swim. Later as her children became involved in their local swimming club, she qualified as a swimming teacher/coach so that she could contribute to help others in their swimming career.
Gina has been involved in swimming in various positions for the past 5 decades and her passion is as strong as ever in seeing everyone have the opportunity to learn to swim. She has received several awards for her volunteering in sport, with the highlight being an MBE for Services to Sport in Scotland.
Through swimming she has travelled the world, attending two Olympic games, three Commonwealth games and numerous European and National events in various capacities in the Aquatics world.
One of Gina’s highlights in teaching young swimmers at the Old Course Hotel has been teaching 4-year-old twins how to swim, to recently watching them compete at East District competitions at the Commonwealth pool in Edinburgh.
