We’re thrilled to announce the appointment of Janelle Pallister OLY as our new Head Coach, commencing after the World Championships in 2025. Janelle is one of Australia’s most respected swimming coaches, a former Olympian and a proven leader in high performance coaching. She has guided numerous swimmers to national and international success, including within the Australian Dolphins team and of course her daughter Lani.
Her arrival marks an exciting step forward in Surrey Park’s long-standing commitment to excellence – not only in elite performance, but in building an inclusive, values-driven, and community-first environment. With Janelle’s leadership, we look forward to taking our performance program to the next level while staying true to the club culture that’s supported swimmers and families for over 100 years.
With this exciting future for Surrey Park Swimming and the Victorian Swimming community, we are honoured to officially welcome Janelle to the Surrey Park family🏊♀️💙
