The legacy that Forbes has left, not only with the Carlile club and swimming in Australia, but also with world swimming is unprecedented,\u201d said Nesbit, a 19-time UK club team championship coach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe future for us (Carlile) is to rebuild the competitive organisation at Regional, National and International level and to re-establish Carlile as a force in competitive swimming<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy early involvement with swimming holds a lasting memory of reading about the exploits of Forbes and (his wife) Ursula Carlile and their many successes, in particular <strong>Shane Gould<\/strong> at the 1972 Munich Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had been given one of Forbes\u2019 books \u201c<em>Forbes Carlile on Swimming\u201d<\/em> in the late 1960s, so my connection with Carlile began over 50 years ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere I am, all these years later, about to embark on the next adventure of my coaching career as Head Coach of the Carlile Swimming Team.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_471910\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-471910\" data-attachment-id=\"471910\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/excitement-all-round-with-chris-nesbits-appointment-as-carliles-head-of-high-performance-in-post-tokyo-coup\/chris-nesbit-with-maddie-gough-and-kiah-melverton-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chris-Nesbit-with-Maddie-Gough-and-Kiah-Melverton-scaled.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1707\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D5&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1562230082&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;240&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;800&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.002&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Chris Nesbit with Maddie Gough and Kiah Melverton\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Chris Nesbit with Maddie Gough and Kiah Melverton&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy:&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chris-Nesbit-with-Maddie-Gough-and-Kiah-Melverton-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chris-Nesbit-with-Maddie-Gough-and-Kiah-Melverton-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-471910\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chris-Nesbit-with-Maddie-Gough-and-Kiah-Melverton-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"Chris Nesbit with Maddie Gough and Kiah Melverton\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-471910\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">STAR PUPILS: Coach Chris Nesbit with two of his Olympic hopefuls, Maddy Gough (lert) and Kiah Melverton Photo Courtesy: Delly Carr (Swimming Australia).<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Nesbit is regarded as one of the world\u2019s most astute Head Coaches who has been lured from a highly successful TSS Aquatic program that currently includes Olympians <strong>David Morgan<\/strong> and <strong>Cam McEvoy<\/strong> and World Championship and Commonwealth Games representatives and Tokyo hopefuls, <strong>Kiah Melverton, Laura Taylor, Maddy Gough<\/strong>, <strong>Kai Edwards<\/strong> and <strong>Grayson Bell.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Apart from placing 23 swimmers on Olympic Teams from 1980 to 2016 in Britain and Australia, he also coached Great Britain at the 2000 and 2004 Olympic Games; both England and Australia at multiple Commonwealth Games and coached on the Australian Teams at the last two FINA World Championships.<\/p>\n<p>The bold move from Carlile Swimming has drawn praise from the swimming community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a fantastic step to help Carlile once again build a squad that will contribute to our National teams and Australia\u2019s continued success for years to come,\u201d said newly appointed CEO of Swimming Australia, Olympian <strong>Alex Baumann.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cCarlile has had a wonderful history of success at the highest levels. We know that when swimming in NSW is strong, Australian Swimming is strong.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dual Olympian and NSW Swimming Technical Director, <strong>Ron McKeon <\/strong>also championed the appointment, saying: \u201cCarlile appointing a coach of this calibre is a great step forward, not just for Carlile but for swimming in NSW. Chris is the sort of coach we can all learn from<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The high-performance improvement and culture Chris will drive within the Carlile program will also influence other aspiring programs across the State and support what is already a very positive and capable coaching community in NSW.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ursula Carlile, the first woman to coach the Australian Olympic team in 1972, met with coach Nesbit and endorsed his appointment.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sitting down with Chris to discuss our goals for the Carlile Swimming Team, it became clear that he is the right person to lead us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChris respects our heritage and is determined to build a program that will ensure success, for years to come. He is a leader Forbes would have been proud of,\u201d Ursula said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m confident with Chris at the helm, along with the support of The Carlile Foundation and the facilities we have secured, Carlile will once again produce swimmers who can match and beat the best in the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Along with Nesbit\u2019s appointment, Carlile has also secured a long term lease at the Ryde Aquatic Leisure Centre, which includes an increase in its lane space for competitive squads.<\/p>\n<p>In a press release announcing Nesbit\u2019s appointment, Carlile Swimming said it would also like to take this opportunity to \u201cthank coach <strong>Misha Payne<\/strong> for his ongoing professionalism and commitment to the team.
