The BSCA was formed in 1965 and has undergone numerous changes since that time. It now has teaching & coaching members within Clubs, schools, universities, local authorities & employees of Governing Bodies at all levels of the sport. It represents the views of, and offers support to, both the voluntary & professional sectors of our sport. To manage this, the BSCA has a network of representatives operating locally throughout the UK, and at the opposite end of the scale, it has officers who sit upon the Board of the World Swimming Coaches Association (WSCA).
