After nearly a decade as the team\u2019s center back, he traded in his suit and cap for a referee flag and whistle and took on administrative duties that quickly earned him the respect and admiration of his peers. In 1960, he was elected Chairman of the National AAU Water polo Committee. And from 1961 through 1964 he also served as Chairman of water polo for the US Olympic Committee. He oversaw the Olympic team selection process and served as manager for US Water Polo team at the Tokyo Games. From 1966 through 1976, he served as Chairman of the AAU Water Polo Rules Committee and internationally he served on the Technical Water Polo Committee UANA \u2013 the Swimming Union of the Americas -from 1963-1975, and on the UANA Executive Board from 1975 to 1995.<\/p>\n<p>While Andy served in many leadership positions during his career, he always put the athletes and swimming sports first, even if it meant stepping aside and helping others who he thought he could be more effective as leaders. Among those Andy assisted to rise above him was a tall, debonair young midwest lawyer and water polo player by the name of <strong>Bob Helmick<\/strong>. From their first meeting in the early 1960s, Andy recognized his talents as a future leader. \u201cThe smartest man I ever met,\u201d Burke says. And for the next two decades, Andy served as Helmick\u2019s advisor, promoter and unofficial \u201ccampaign manager\u201d as he rose to positions of power from within the AAU and Olympic water polo committees to the presidency of FINA in 1984 and finally as President of the US Olympic Committee in 1988. Among the many ways Bob Helmick repaid Andy for his support was by designating him Chef d\u2019Mission to lead the US Delegation at the 1991 FINA World Championships in Perth, Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Andy played a similar role in the early career of <strong>Dr. Julio Maglione<\/strong>. Andy had been involved with the UANA organization since 1963 and on the Executive Board for four years when Maglione was elected President of UANA in 1979. The organization didn\u2019t do much between Pan American Games, but the new president wanted that to change. Andy helped the new president turn his ideas into actions and their efforts caught the attention of FINA, especially Bob Helmick. In 1984, Dr. Maglione moved from UANA president to the FINA Bureau and serves as President of FINA today.<\/p>\n<p>Andy continues today to serve as an example of the spirit of volunteerism. At the age of 88 years young, when most folks his age are content to sit at home and watch sports on tv, Andy Burke continues to referee high school water polo games, oversee the Masters waster polo program of the Olympic Club and provide sage advise to the many leaders of today who seek him out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Relive the special night for\u00a0Andy Burke\u00a0when the\u00a0International Swimming Hall of Fame inducted the class of 2018\u00a0during ceremonies in Fort Lauderdale Florida on May 19th.
